England - Belgium Friendly [June 02]

Postby Zenith » Fri May 25, 2012 12:15 am

England V Belgium
2 Jun 2012 - 5:15 PM

Wembley Stadium, London



------------------Mignolet/Courtois----------------- Personal opinion, Mignolet will play vs England though
Cavanda--Kompany--Vermaelen--Vertonghen----- Currently we simply don't have a single decent LB, so JVT on LB
-------------Fellaini----------Witsel------------------ Fellaini doing very well at Everton, same goes for Witsel at Benfica
Chadli---------------Hazard------------Mertens----- Chadli adds a more power in the att. side of MF (Haz+Mert=Midgets)
--------------Mirallas/De Camargo------------------ Mira is versatile+good finisher, if you want more work-rate take DC

Useful bench players:
Alderweireld (Ajax), Lombaerts (Zenit), Odoi (Anderlecht), Mudingayi (Bologna), Dembélé (Fulham), De Bruyne (Chelsea), Naingollan (Cagliari), Defour (Porto), Lukaku (Chelsea), Vossen (Genk)

Manager: Marc Wilmots, assistant who takes over untill we find a new manager *Hopes for Eric Gerets* :pray:

Note: This is not the official line-up.


Perhaps you could post your preferable England line-up?

Look forward to that. At least that does not need to be a football free day. Does not compare to Club football though. Norway tomorrow (26 May) as well.
I want Carl Jenkinson back in a Arsenal shirt next season.

Mirallas is quite versatile, known for being able to play on both wings, CAM and ST positions, also he has played there several times for the national team and even for Olympiakos when Djebbour was injured.
Aswell this season for Olympiakos he has netted over 20 goals and about 8 assists , which is fairly decent.
We simply don't have a better finisher than him right now and honestly Lukaku is at least 3-4 years away from becoming a good striker.

England to win 8-0.

The newspapers have had nothing to bug us up about this year as nobody has any expectations.

Great performance, newspapers big us up to be best in the world for winning a friendly. Then they can do their usual shite when the Euro's are over with big smiles over their faces as England lost. c****.

Thanks for the info, Zenith. Are you serious Yorky? Damn, I'd be surprised if England could score half that many against San Marino's b-team.

There's a small possibility that Kompany won't play (calf injury), but the medical staff told him he could decide himself wether he wanted to risk it or not.
But I know him long enough to know he'll play if the decision is his. :frogwink:

Hart, Johnson, Cahill, Terry, Cole, Parker, Gerrard, Milner, Chamberlain, Young, Welbeck.

If thats a front three of Ox, Welbeck, Young then I look forward very much to watching them link up and interchange; I expect we will see a more ridgid formation with Milner out wide though and Welbeck and Young through the middle.

Theo should be worried because a good performance from Ox and he'll have his place in the team IMO.

My bets:

TV to score first
Ox to score first
Ox to score hat-trick

Only put 50p on each, can't remember the odds.

I'd love it if John Terry went in for a challenge and broke Eden Hazard's leg. That would be poetic justice at its best!
