And surely Parker needs to be in there?
Anyway....2 years time Parker and Gerrard to old?
I'm not sure I like the idea of two defensive midfielders in the team. Gerrard is ahead of Parker, that's clear. Nothing against Parker, but I prefer to see one creative midfielder in the team. Gerrard can be creative, but he's usually defending for England because we allow our opponents so much possession.
I think Gerrard will still be good enough at the WC. Midfielders don't need great pace if they are well positioned and their passing is up to scratch. Beckham was still playing well for us well into his 30s. Fact is, Gerrard is our best midfielder by a distance, and the kids will benefit from having such a player in the team.
I also hate Ashley Cole with a passion, but he's world class in his position, there's definitely no better English left back.
