    I think Cahill and Stones would be better. Smalling is gonna get hammered if the refs suddenly decide to "pull" him up on his tugging and hugging habit.

    Every tournament the refs get tough on something.

    Oh FFS!!!!!!!!

    I've just taken a call I just didn't need to take. I've been offered a ticket to the England V Wales game. Free. Paid for. Going with a friend who's customer has told him he can't go. He works in my industry and his company supply small amounts to us. They'd like to supply more. Perfect justification for him to take me.

    I fly to Singapore for a week with work on Monday :(

    Agree with this - but that really does show the state of our central defence! Imp Saint is right about shirt pulling - it could cost us big time if it is acted upon by refs.

    I'd play Stones. If we all agree our CB options are a bit rubbish, then he is the future. Might as well start now.

    Cahill & Smalling for me...

    On this note everyones team for Saturday? I'd go...

    Hart
    Clyne
    Cahill
    Smalling
    Rose
    Dier
    Wilshere*
    Alli
    Rooney
    Kane
    Lallana/Sterling/Barkley

    *If not fully fit milner/hendo

    Only question mark for me is the last spot and as much as I don't really rate him I'd be tempted to go Sterling just to add some pace.

    Wouldn't have Alli & Barkley in the same team. Vardy as sub.

    Apparently Danny Boy or Londonderry Air is used at the Commonwealth games.

    I'm loving that. We've got to adapt then adopt that for Saints.

    A goal for you
    A goal for me
    He even scored against Man City"

    Please put Henderson ahead of Wilshere. Totally unfit. He should be spending the summer regaining full fitness with Arsenal, not charging around like an idiot on the football pitch for England.

    At least playing unfit he won't be charging around. Indeed, it's the charging around that tends to get him injured. He's an accident waiting to happen. ;)
