The Fulham run is when I most cared about it. That run was amazing.

[King Gizzard]

should have kept the straight knock out phase the whole way through, or kept it the cup winners cup

[King Gizzard]

well there was only dario gradi, moyes and fergie standing in the way of that stat. guy must have had it saved up for ages

Can see Swansea, Norwich, WBA, Hull, whoever comes up from the playoffs struggling next yar

I think Albion will be fine if they retain most of that squad, they need to strengthen on a few places particularly up front because Lukaku might not want another loan spell and Odemwingie is going, plus Rosenberg/Fortune's futures are uncertain yet!

I agree about Hull though.

i think Lukaku does want to stay another year, can see Chelsea wanting him though

[bbfan1991]

I think he should stay at Albion tbh, he is guaranteed first team football and can continue his improvement.

I agree Hull will be many peoples predictions for relegation, but their not in bad shape as a club.

They've got a wealthy owner/chairman, they've got a young/big squad, the people of Hull were really confident before the new year that this team were gonna go up (and that's never happened before), they were a pretty consistent, hard to beat team in the championship (which is a really tough league)

They don't need to make to many signings, just maybe 1 marque signing and a strengthening the depth in 1 or 2 positions (A good keeper is probably needed)

I think they'll stay up, but I am bias

Everton will need to improve their CM and ST options too.

They need a striker who can score 20+ goals a season, and keep hold of Jagielka.

They can cash in on Fellaini, and spend it on a striker, do you know any available who can score 20+ a season?

Jagielka stopping and a striker scoring is a winning formula

[Drew.]

i reckon Mirallas has a 20+ season in him

[Drew.]

Frank Lampard signs one-year extension to his current Chelsea contract

[Drew.]

England squad to play Rep Ireland & Brazil: Foster, Hart, McCarthy; Baines, Cahill, Cole, Jagielka, Johnson, Jones, Lescott, Walker, Carrick, Cleverley, Lampard, Milner, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Walcott; Carroll, Defoe, Rooney, Sturridge, Welbeck

[Ryan57]

Embarrassing midfield without Gerrard and Wilshere. And Carroll rofl.

Definitely think we'll get raped in Brazil.

[King Gizzard]

No Lowton and Gabby is a joke. Especially Gabby, second highest English goalscorer since January

[King Gizzard]

Chamberlain inclusion is a joke too

[Ryan57]

Would love to see:

Hart

Walker Jagielka Jones Cole

Carrick Lampard

Milner Rooney The Ox

Walcott

But we won't.

[Alf]

I'd go with

Hart

Jones, Jagielka, Cahill, Cole

Walcott, Carrick, Lampard, Milner

Rooney, Welbeck

[Drew.]

our u21 squad is more exciting

NO!

What a career David Beckham has had. I wish him a happy retirement and good luck with what he does next.

Oh yes, wonderful player and captain of his country. I'd say the best player for England in my lifetime, obviously not as talented a footballer as Gazza but for effort and consistency he's in a league of his own.
