Cole out, Shaw in apparently. I would have left Baines.

Same here, no chance should Baines be going ahead of Cole. Has showed in recently weeks he still is good enough at the highest level, no shame in falling behind Azpilicueta at Chelsea.

Baines shouldn't be going ahead of Cole and Gibbs. Such an overrated player. He'll get shown up at the World Cup.

So Cole retired then, legendary LB.

Max Meyer made the German squad. I've heard amazing things about him this season.

What has he done to amaze?

Götze-similar breakthrough apparently. The Schalke fans think he's a bigger talent than Draxler.

So does it go gotze < Meyer < Eisfeld?

Everything about this post is wrong.

There's a pretty exciting XI in there somewhere.

I'd go with:

Gerrard - Wilshere

Ox - Rooney - Sterling

---- Sturridge

Patters

Hodgson has indirectly said he'll go for the experienced players. Expect a boring line-up. Wilshere might get the nod because Hodgson loves him.

Don't know about how they'd fit in but I expect to see Collymore's line-up:

@StanCollymore: England v Italy. Hart/Johnson Cahill Jagielka Baines/Gerrard /Milner Wilshere Henderson Welbeck /Rooney.

Which is quite horrendous really.

Some of those photoshopped heads are horrendous. Phil Jones obviously looks the most ridiculous. 😆

More importantly, yesss! Won my bets. Got 19 of the final squad right, didn't go for the two sub keepers, Lampard and Lambert.

I'd go for that, but with Henderson in for Jack. Sounds like Roy's plan is:

----- Hart

Johnson - Jags - Cahill - Baines

Gerrard - Henderson

Sterling - Rooney - Lallana

---- Sturridge

lorddulaarsenal

I'd go

---------Sturridge
Chambo-Rooney-Sterling
------Wilshere-Gerrard
Shaw-Jagielka-Cahill-Johnson
----------- Hart
