Sterling performance versus the Dutch

I believe it has already booked him his seat on the plane for the WC

What do you all think??

[lapsed_fan]

Of course he's going ,probably the end of Andy Cole international career

[Boovy]

or even more hopefully Heskeys

[Mark]

yeh he got his chance and has taken it with both hands!!

[lapsed_fan]

No chance, only injury will stop Heskey going to Japan. I'm not convinced by him either but we don't pick the team

ditto, but sven thinks he's good :???

[Rob the Red]

Thats my only problem with sven, he likes Heskey.

[Mark]

saw the goal on MOTD, brilliant finish!!!

[GLAZA]

he's played 90 minutes of one friendly....... hardly conclusive that he's gonna be the next shearer is it now :???

[Jere Markus]

But he´s already a more regular scorer for England than Heskey ever was!! :) :)

Goals count. That´s why I respect Scholes - but not Heskey. Good performances in Pool shirt don´t count - John Barnes should know all about it. Heskey is another Barnes.

[GLAZA]

so we rest our england hopes on some rookie?

[Jere Markus]

You remember how hard it was for Owen to bypass Teddy for the starting spot? Wouldn´t it had been better if Owen had gotten his chance earlier?

The same can happen with VAssel/Ricketts.. given their chance I´m sure they can NOT be worse than Heskey.

..and I was somewhat ironizing Heskeys impotence in England shirt..

:razz

[GLAZA]

whatever. i just dont think it would be wise to put the rookies in with the best ie. argentina.

[Jere Markus]

If England doesn´t come up with something new or a surprising, effective factor, England has no chance against Argies anyways!! (that Wales match says nuttin)

When was the last time England won Argentina in a tournament?

It´s time to come up with some new tricks. Immediately.

[Mark]

wud of beat em last time but for shearer :angry

[lapsed_fan]

I see that thug chamot is still in the Argentina team, you dont think he will go three consecutive games without getting sent off do you?. He'd fight with own shadow

[Jere Markus]

Half of the Argentina team is total mental cases and the other half are divers! I respected Redondo, but he´s too old now.

Ortega is a nut case&diver. Crespo..

Batigol&Veron are good.

I have forgot them.. good for me. :)

[Manic Loop]

come on, hes hardly likely to start anyway, hed be cover if he went, its all academic. owen, heskey, fowler, sheringham and i think 1 other from vassel, phillips, ricketts, and cole

[Jere Markus]

Phillips has not played to his stantards this season.
Cole has not played. period.

[lapsed_fan]

Half of the Argentina team is total mental cases and the other half are divers! I respected Redondo, but he´s too old now.

Redondo suffered another serious knee injury, he'll be lucky to play again

[Jere Markus]

Redondo is a class act. Bad for him.

[jimlad1981]

heskey is essential to englands world cup plans. he plays so well with owen and is very useful defending corners and free kicks.

Why can't Liverpool fans admit Heskey is shit and never was good

you say 5 in 3 games.......i say 6 in 35!!!!

"HEskey is a prescence" you say..........but we could play Campbell up front for a prescence, and both would have same effect!!

Heskey was totally out of that England - Holland game, was up to his usual falling over trick and barely seemed capable of jogging, let alone running!!!!!!!!!!!

I could admit Cole was never good enough for England, admit Heskey isnt
