Really what is the point of a) the match in the first place and b) picking 75% of players that would normally make the squad anyway. No Pennant/Nolan/Davies - all prime candidates for a B squad call up. But no, we get Defoe, Jenas, Downing etc... Mclaren should have already figured out they're s*** and should be including some more hungry, internationally unproven players!

I'm sure there are no Liverpool players for a reason otherwise Carragher and Pennant would have had a shout.

London based bias obviously.

Yeah it's the 25th of May, so that's why no Pennant.

Please tell me your joking.

 

LOL at Jenas by the way. He'd be in the under 21 squads too if they weren't at the same time as the senior team.

Robinson but no Carson. The SCS is a Fvckin numpty

[IgPig]

Its the B squad, ergo its full of s**** players.

 

Papers said the intention was not to pick players from us Chelsea or the Mancs . Presumably Smith's an exception because he's missed most of the season.

Forum challenge: come up with a list of 8 top flight midfielders of the same nationality that is less inspiring than that little lot.

How many of them play because thier Granny once drank a pint of guiness????

[Ben 23]

I like Andy Reid... He inspires me.

[Earl Hafler]

This young prospect Phil Neville neads all the games he can get. Don't think McLaren's seen enough of him yet.

[Maldini]

That squad is a f***ing joke, why has he picked the #1 and #2 keepers in the B squad?
