Has Sven picked this squad on purpose to get back at the FA? and ruin Englad's chances?

No kidding. How many goals does he plan to score? Probably no Rooney, limited Owen at best. Crouch is just tall, but there are plenty of midfielders to cross it to him. After Crouch, Walcott and a bunch of other teenagers in reserve with one cap between them. Good luck to the English. Probably will not win their group and may not make it to the round of 16 at all.

ok, if ONE MORE PERSON use the word 'pace', i'll blow up! England doesn't have 'pace'! What England has is a squad full of individual talent, no collective flow, and a pathetic strategy when it comes to big tournaments. They will choke again this WC as they have chocked at every big tournament since 1966. The problem with the british players is that they cannot pull it together when they need to. They get ahead of themselves if they're up on the scoreboard, and screw up as a result. They're going to the WC with NO PLAN B, and that's nobody's fault but Sven himself....so don't talk about pace, because until they prove they can play together, I don't see the 'pace' in that squad.

I dont think its a bad squad at all except for Owen Hargreaves, good defence and a very offensive and pacey midfield, with a natural left footer on the left now which England have lacked for ages, and I think Theo Walcott is a great gamble I think he's gonna shock alot of people in England and the other teams when they try to mark him.

I'm glad sven is going,because for a swedish insurance salesman lookalike,he makes a great football coach.how sven can pick a guy like walcott who has never played a premiership game,i'll never know.walcott might become a great player in a few years time,but not now.if sven's picking walcott he might as well pick all the little kids having a kick around in my local park in london.adios sven.thanks for ruining england's world cup chances.
