Players and their positions?

Posted by: Wesley Bishop, Tue 16th Oct 2007
If you play for England, surely you should be the best available player in that position? So what does it say about our squad when it looks like Lescott will be playing left back tomorrow (according to skysports news)? What's the point in having Shorey in the squad if when Cole is injured........ you play a centre half there? If Shorey wasnt good enough then he shouldnt be in the squad.

Why is is that everyone else
Why is is that everyone else can see this except McClaren?? Just because Lescott played well at left back whilst Leighton Baines was injured does not qualify him as a left back!!! Shorey and Baines should be the only contenders for the left back spot tonight. I'm fed up with watching the likes of Wes Brown playing full back for England. Players shoud not be used to 'do a job' at international level. They should be picked because they are the best player available in their position. Why the nerves Mike?? Come on it will be fine. Russia are second rate and if Woz can trap a ball on a plastic pitch.....well sometimes....the cream of englands crop will be fine. Gareth England Podjockey
