OK. Let's say this is your 23-man squad, right.

GKs: Green, James, one of Robinson, Foster or Hart
RBs: Richards, Johnson
LBs: Bridge, A. Cole
CBs: Ferdinand, Terry, Upson
CMs: Hargreaves (if fit) or Carrick, Barry, Gerrard, Lampard
RMs: Beckham, Wright-Phillips, Walcott
LMs: J. Cole (if not - A. Young if not?), Milner
CFs: Rooney, Heskey, Crouch, Defoe

Then you've got other options down the right if Beckham isn't going to start. I don't think there's any need to take both SWP and Lennon, as they're a bit too similar as players.
