Heather_6 Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Does anybody else fink that crouch just gets in people's way for england. walcott, owen and rooney do better on their own without him, Johnson and beattie are better than him. And that stupid celebration he did, wat was that all about the freak! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebluenose Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 (edited) i found that celebration pretty funny. i should take crouch to the world cup. but i shouldnt start him. only bring him on with 20 mins left to unsettle defenders. tbh wallcott shouldnt go. he showed that he doesnt have what it takes to be an international yet. he needs regular premiership experience. defoe or Johnson should go in his place.

Romey 1878 Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 I was cheering for Crouch to miss the penalty because i thought if he scores this and gets the hat trick then theres no way Sven will take the waste of space out of the squad and will seem to be proven right about him.

Romey 1878 Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 I think Svens thinking is 'weve got Lamps and Gerrard in the centre and hopefully they wont get injured so it doesnt matter who else i pick, oh and i can bring on Hargreaves for the last 10mins ' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevO Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 now i hate crouch with a dying passion, but thought the lanky streak of piss played well today (and he actualy headed a couple of balls, but i suppose if beckhams passing like that anyone could!) but i'll still be prayin we have Rooney back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 I think every England fan will be praying for the same thing, there wont be many whod rather see Crouch start. We looked like the walking wounded in that match didnt we, it makes you wonder who will start against Paraguay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 Svens already said Crouch and Owen start next saturday, it has to be, cos theres nobody else, can see them playing together right up to the semi finals. Rooney if hes fit, wont play until then, But then Do you chance him ?? has not played for 6weeks and 3 more weeks to go till the Semi's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xavier Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 Haha. Crouch has scored 4 decent goals in 2 games, looked a decent threat over the last 5 english games. Owen has had a couple himself, a couple of assists and clearly gels well with Crouch, meaning your attacking lineup looks pretty good. I really cant see why people are crying that Rooney's not there. AS licker said, the guy hasnt kicked a ball for so many weeks and its a risk even having him in the squad. It would be better to put Defoe or Andy Johnson in it if someone gets injured in the group stages as Walcott doesnt look up to the mark at this point, IMO. The media has hyped up Rooney's injury so much its disgusting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 Yeah...........Done the same with Beckham last time and he was shit. If it was Dafoe or Johnson that had broken their metatarsal, no way would they be in the squad. We could be blowing our chance by playing Rooney without any warm-up games.

StevO Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 as well as crouch is playin right now, the threat of rooney is enough to scare other teams, thats before he even gets the ball. defenders are scared of him, as are goal keepers, and even midfielders. crouch may take two defenders out of the game, but rooney will take more than that. i just wish he was fully fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluetrip Posted June 5, 2006 Report Share Posted June 5, 2006 Jamaica are the equivalent at a mediocre chamionship team at best . I've seen non league sides defend better. That lanky string of piss will be found out against half decent opposition, probably Sweeden or Germany in round 2. He cant dribble, no pace, a lot say he has a great touch but he looks shaky whenever hes in posession and lays off the easiest ball possible. He can provide some decent arial support to Owen but hes another no where near his best either, hasnt been for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
