I don't think you can leave out Ronaldo or Evra for form reasons. I think you would have to play Larsson in Europe. Wes is a decent backup and a better option than O'Shea instead of a left back.

Weststandred Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 <BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content"> Playing for England against Spain was a very proud moment for me. I’ve been a United player for 18 or 20 months now and yet I made my Old Trafford debut for England. It was a little strange but it’s not something I’d change! I spent four years at Stoke City as third choice goalkeeper - sometimes even fourth choice - so you can easily get into the mindset of thinking, ‘If Stoke can’t see anything in me, why would anybody else?’. When United came in for me it was an absolute shock, to be honest. They showed a lot of faith in me and paid quite a lot of money for somebody who’d never even played for Stoke. Now I’ve just played for my country. It’s the kind of thing dreams are made of. I was a bit anxious going into the match because it was the biggest game I’ve played in my career so far. The hardest part was in the hotel on the day of the game. We had four or five hours to just rest and that’s when I got nervous. I had a lot of time to think and sometimes in those situations your mind starts to run away and you think of crazy things that could happen. But as soon as we got to the stadium and we were warming up, my natural instincts took over and it was business as usual. At the end of the day, it’s just another football match. If I hadn’t gone out on loan to Watford this season and last season I wouldn’t be in the position I’m in today. I owe a lot to United for loaning me out and also to Watford for giving me the chance to play games. Paul Robinson is still Steve McClaren’s first-choice for England and I’m okay with that. He hasn’t done anything to warrant being dropped so I can only do what I do, keep going out every Saturday and doing as well as I can for Watford. If the England manager calls me up, that’s brilliant. If not, I’ll just keep going. </div></BLOCKQUOTE> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
