rooney OUT

[smallsy]

looks like he will not make it. whats your preferred strike partnership and who should replace rooney?

[Mr Happy]

REplace Rooney and Walcott with Defoe and Bent.

[Kaiser Jnr]

Owen and Crouch. Looked good together last night...

[MCP]

crouch looked quite lively and obviously owens a starter

[Mr Happy]

Agreed, Bent and Defoe to be thrid and fourth choice up front

[smallsy]

not sure about your comments mr happy. i dont think bent can do a job. there are plenty better.

 

lets face it owen will play...and defoe and bent are too similar.

 

it is either crouch or someone else. i personally think ashton could play with owen cos he is a different player, even harewood as he is big a strong.

 

sven will go with crouch and owen but id rather crouch came off the bench. i think carrick could find himself in a starting X1 with gerrard being given a license.

Lets just play with the West Ham First XI then... cause obviously thats how you think we will win the World Cup... <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/bootyshake.gif" alt="" />

i know how that looks but i honestly see ashton as a great england striker.

[Mr Happy]

I thought Ashton was injured.

 

Would prefer to see Crouch and Owen start. Bring on Defoe later if we need him. don't like five midfielders and the reason that Sven would consider that system is coz he is too scared to drop either Lampard or Gerrard and he knows that they don't play well together.

[smallsy]

well he played in the cup final and was class until he was taken off due to lacking match fitness.
