TrueBlue89 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Even though nothing has been said or reported officially, on my travels today I have heard a lot of chat about Ledley King replacing JT in the England starting XI. This has really irritated me today, so lets look at some of the details: JT trains everyday. Ledley King trains a couple of times a week if hes lucky. JT plays a full 90 minutes week in week out. Ledley King if he plays 90 minutes one game he has to rest the next JT Premier League Apps 09/10 37 with 2 goals. Ledley King Premier League Apps 09/10 19 with 1 goal So, with these details and after one international game and one international goal in three years for Ledley King, he should replace JT who replicates his solid form at international level. One word to sum it up: Unbelievable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chelseabootboy Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 This is a laughable thread :D people in the media are pushing for y*ddo king to get the nod over JT more media hatred towards chelsea, after seeing england monday lennon is the only y*d worth taking, but on another note fabio's quote of " i will only pick inform 100% fit players who play reguarly for there club" this is a bullsh*t quote as JT has played more games than king and ferdibanned combined, the whole england thing is getting to be a bit of a joke and i really am getting pissed off with the whole thing........

BlueBeard Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 the whole england thing is getting to be a bit of a joke and i really am getting pissed off with the whole thing........ I agree. Capello started this when he stripped the captaincy from JT, presumably for reasons of morality, then replaced him with a known drug-cheat who is deputised by a bloke who should be in prison. Wonderful! On top of that, he then brings in C*ntCarragher who famously turned his back on his country in a massive sulk because he wasn't getting selected. F*ckin' unbelievable! Carragher should never play for England again, in fact I'd go so far as to scratch his previous England appearances from the record, along with those of Paul Scholes. So, when W*nkerCapello selects his final 23 for the World Cup Finals, one of England's best centre-backs is going to be left behind to make way for a player who refused to play for England (until a World Cup Finals was in the offing). Wonder if C*ntCarragher would have agreed to return so quickly if it was for something like the Confederations Cup? Conclusion? Capello is a prize w*nker with no bottle at all. He bowed down to the power of the press and stripped JT of the captaincy, made himself look a total arsehole with his selection of replacement, brings back a total c*nt who turned his back on his country, and finally, he actually considers taking players like Ledley Injured King and Emile On-His-Arse Heskey to a major football competition. Is he doing this for a bet, or is he on an Italian wind-up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maksimov Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 (edited) ...replaced him with a known drug-cheat... Don't forget the desperate need for some anger management courses. Kicking the ball full blast at people in the stands after the whistle has been blown and kicking stadium staff when things aren't going his way. And yeah, I've heard his vice captain likes Phil Collins, so he's not a very good role model. Or was his musical taste the reason why he should be in prison? :D Edited May 26, 2010 by Maksimov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maksimov Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 the record speaks for its self,the 1-5 out in munich been top of that ladder. He should probably be considered for the England team(which says more about the quality of available English strikers than anything else, mind you), but I don't think matches from almost ten years before should be looked at when considering players' form of the moment or we'd be talking about Seaman making a comeback.

I've never liked nor rated Heskey, he's just a big lump who falls over far too much. For a big 'striker', Heskey doesn't score anywhere near enough goals, isn't very good in the air, has a first touch like an elephant stepping on a landmine, doesn't have much stamina, gets injured far too easily, and is a total sh*tbag (I remember the c*nt getting sent off against us when he was with the scousescum). Just my personal opinion ;) I think Kevin Davies is far worthier of an England place in that position. I'll admit he doesn't score a lot of goals (still gets more than Heskey), but he's very strong on the ball, good in the air and strong with it, great at holding up play, and won't ever be bullied by big defenders - he always gives as good as he gets. Think we'll have to agree to disagree on this one :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine this, World cup final and the ball drops o one of our players in the box, unfortunately its our non goals scoring striker heskey who ballons it over the bab. I would be much happier having a striker on the pitch who actually scores goals, even if its one who does sod all else for the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be much happier having a striker on the pitch who actually scores goals, even if its one who does sod all else for the team. Hard to argue with any of that but it has to be said that there is considerable evidence that England actually do function better as a team with Heskey in it , and more to the point his inclusion brings out the best in Rooney who he clearly links up better with than any other partner. As its pretty obvious that Rooney is by a long distance our best player and subsequently our best chance of having a good tournament i wouldn't be surprised , nor too disappointed if Heskey started in our first XI.

stevo Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 (edited) I wish England all the best, but I wont be watching any of their matches. I cant stand that cun* Capello after the way he bent over for the media over the whole JT thing. I cant stand watching those scouse w**ke** play either. I have a feeling Maradona and his boys will be taking that cup home. Edited May 26, 2010 by stevo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutch Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 (edited) I noticed this comment:"King did what Terry does, but better..." from the same comment (someone calling himself amiiG) Lampard hardly shows up for England competitive games, never mind friendlies my guess is that amiiG is another from the adrian durham school of football punditry, believing that steven gerrard was far and away England's best player against Mexico. because because because because he just was. the article itself takes a far more positive attitude towards the missing Chelsea players, JT included. it's difficult for anyone except the most rabidly anti-Chelsea fans, pundits etc to argue with this: A row of dark-suited men watching from a row of seats behind the England dug‑out exerted more of an influence on last night's performance than most of the players on the pitch. What Fabio Capello's side lacked against Mexico was the composed decisiveness of John Terry, the dynamism of Ashley Cole, the connectivity of Frank Lampard and the imagination of Joe Cole. Even in a 3-1 victory Chelsea's Double-winners were badly missed. Edited May 26, 2010 by stride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WV2 Blue Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 Capello's no mug, half of these journo's who wrote most of this sh*te are spud's fans anyway...JT will play, and when Plug the Drug does his back in JT will be captain again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PloKoon13 Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 Why is JT's place under threat when Ferdinand put in that shocking performance last night? King was ok, but JT should be England's first choice centre back. If he seriously gets dropped for King/Ferdinand then I have another string to my 'Capello is a complete and utter useless c**t' bow.
