Got to be Terry or Gerrard for me

And we have to go back to 4-4-2 with Lampard out of the side.

We need a holding player (Hargreaves) and an attacking midfielder (Gerrard), withg Lennon on the right and Cole on the left.

Beckham should retire from international football and Lampard should only play if Gerrard can't.

Managers get paid millions of pounds for making difficult decisions, and Sven shied away from them all, desperately accommodating all of his "stars" when he should have jettisoned one or two during this World Cup.

Poor, poor management, and no bottle. But McCalren will be no better I fear. Not strong enough, too close to the senior players. Needed someone new. We're f**ked.
