thanks a lot england

walcott going down with an injury, just what i need. i watched the second half of england germany. england were the better team, i'll just leave it at that. but with all the debate over the midfield, i think michael carrick may be their answer, (or at least part of the answer). He's really cemented himself in the United midfield this year with Scholes being out long term. He's finally putting in the performances we saw from him at spurs. His passing is immaculate, on either foot, and he's not short on confidence even when it comes to finishing these days, (if you saw the goal at stoke).

So then, with that said, what is your England Midfield, or starting 11 for that matter.

Mine is a 4-5-1 of sorts, w/ Terry, Ferdinand, at the center, A.Cole at left back, M. Richards or Glen Johnson at right back). And sorry Frank, but as much as I love you I think you're the guy who's gotta miss out. so it goes, Downing on the left, Barry and Carrick in the middle, Wright-Phillips on the right, and Gerrard going wherever he needs to in support of Rooney, or even Agbonlahor, who is really, really pacey. And put David Seamen back in goal.
