Worst England starting XI since 2000

[joeluke]

This one should be easier than trying to pick a best XI!

Ian Walker
----------------
Wes Brown
Ugo Ehiogu
Zat Knight
Chris Powell
----------------
Gavin McCann
Alan Smith
Ray Parlour
Seth Johnson
-----------------
Michael Ricketts
Francis Jeffers

Subs:
Nigel Martyn
Paul Konchesky
Jamie Carragher
Dennis Wise
Emile Heskey
Carlton Cole
Darius Vassell


All come under the category 'If they can play for England so can I' !!!

would agree on 99% Joe but Nigel Martyn was a fantastic keeper and should have taken over from Seaman. He was better than seaman for many a year before seaman was final put out to grass.

[Mick-Talbot]

and your wrong on the other thread too..... Robinson could not lace Martyns boots. Leeds got rid of the wrong keeper.

[joeluke]

Leeds fan eh mick?

All about personal opinions

[Mick-Talbot]

Did i argue with Alan Smith?
Martyn was the best english keeper for years.

[joeluke]

Now I see why you're so anti-ManU

Smith is probably on your hate list cos he left you for the enemy

[Mick-Talbot]

no, Joe no.... i actually thought fergie was wasting his money.
Smith made himself look stupid by joining man u .... after his comment earlier in his career.

[joeluke]

Turns out you were right he was a waste of money, I'm sure Newcastle fans think so too

What was Smith's comment?

[Mick-Talbot]

interviewer .....is there any team you would not join, if you left Leeds united.

you can guess his answer

[joeluke]

Not a great loss for Leeds, an overrated hothead

I'm sure that's the standard answer any player gives when asked that question, the name of his current teams most hated rivals

[Davethedog]

Carlton Palmer - Geoff Thomas - Keith Curle - Scott Carson

Martyn and Carragher??? Can't agree Walker Brown & Ehiogu not England class but far from the worst

[joeluke]

Agree with Carson, he can take over on the bench from Martyn (that'll please Mick Leeds Talbot!)

Carlton Palmer, Geoff Thomas and Keith Curle all won caps in the early 90's, my choices were from 2000 onwards

[T&S]

Jamie Carragher? Are you taking the Mickey??

[joeluke]

Nope, he's a donkey.....Premiership quality yes - International quality definitely not

I'm taking my cue from your avatar Joeluke...
