[Dazza82]

This is the squad but what would be YOUR Starting 11 for first game, Dont forget Rooney is banned.

 

Goalkeepers: Joe Hart (Man City), Rob Green (West Ham), John Ruddy (Norwich)

 

Defenders: Glen Johnson (Liverpool), Phil Jones (Man United), John Terry (Chelsea), Joleon Lescott (Man City), Gary Cahill (Chelsea), Ashley Cole (Chelsea), Leighton Baines (Everton)

 

Midfielders: Theo Walcott (Arsenal), Stewart Downing (Liverpool), Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (Arsenal), Steven Gerrard (Liverpool), Gareth Barry (Man City), Frank Lampard (Chelsea), Scott Parker (Tottenham), Ashley Young (Man United), James Milner (Man City)

 

Forwards: Wayne Rooney (Man United), Danny Welbeck (Man United), Andy Carroll (Liverpool), Jermain Defoe (Tottenham)

 

 

This would be mine:

 

------------Hart------------

Johnson--Terry--Lescott--Cole

--------Barry----Parker-----

Walcott-----Gerrard----Young

---------Welbeck---------

Hart

 

Johnson - Cahill - Terry - Cole

 

Barry - Parker

 

Chambo Lampard Young

 

Carroll

 

Why not plump for Oxo? Might as well throw him in...he's good enough and we don't have much else. I'd go with Lampard because he's played more, and in that position you're giving him the freedom that he has at Chelsea. That formation is kind of similar to Chelsea years ago.

 

Duff on one side, Robben on the other, Drogba up top and Lampard in behind...and that worked wonders for him and his goal scoring tally.

Gerrard is going to be a starter he has been made Captain.
