I agree that they should have been punished for cheating, but Rooney might as well run around with a sandwich board saying 'I'm a thick tw** waiting for a red card'.

I wouldn't pick Barry for England unless there was a long list of injured midfielders. I'd rather have Parker as the enforcer and Wilshere or Lampard next to him. Off the top of my head, the best England team without Rooney I can think of:
----------Hart
Walker Terry Cahill Cole
Gerrard Parker Wilshere
Johnson Carroll Young
Though I've probably missed someone obvious.
I've never quite understood the media obsession with Scott Parker. He's a solid enough premier league player but I just don't see him at that next level. Of course gareth Barry is not necessarily at that quality either but I think he's always done fairly well in that role and I can't think of anyone better at the minute.
the difference between parker an barry is...parker can pass,tackle an is quicker then barry(maybe not by much) england will be better off when they **** off barry,lampard an terry
barry i've posted my views on him,terry i'd take if ferdinand is injured if not i'd have smalling an rio as a centre back pairing...lampard i feel his best days are behind him at international level in the last world cup an in majority of the qualifiers he doesnt look up to the pace of it anymore wilshere,parker an gerrard would be my ideal minfield 3 with young an walcott/johnson as my wingers/forward 3 with well who ever sticks thier hand up in the next 6months an say i'm the man to lead the line big 6 month for carroll,wellbeck,defoe,bent,sturridge an zamora
I think it's about time England started playing like a team instead of a bunch of individuals thrown together.
