Who would be in your British XI tomorrow night?
Imagine we were one country. Men from Stoke could proudly walk through Paris wearing a tartan dress, the people of Wales would know what victory felt like, and England’s goalkeeping “crisis” (though that’s technically a bit of a strong word for poor Robbo) would be solved in a jiffy.
So if we were just one nation battling for qualification together, who would you pick in your starting eleven tomorrow night (injuries taken into account, so no Rooney or Healy I’m afraid). For our pick click onward…

Bale?
McManus is shite
You couldn’t play Bale until Jol starts playing him regularly. Agree he’s a class talent, but he’s not up to the job yet…
fletcher??
are you serious
It’s Fletcher or Gareth Barry Pajo!
surely not fletcher?? is hargreaves injured again?

An English defence with none of England’s attacking mishaps, should work like a charm.

But not Bellamy please… anyone but him.
Also Cashly Cole has ceased to impress at LB so Bale may be a better bet.
The England team + Craig Gordon.

ehhhh fozzie hate to tell you but neither dunne or keane are british
I wouldn’t have Fletcher near any team. Ever.
Excuse me but isn’t Bale playing for Wales?
God knows what the hell you’re smoking if you’re not picking Ferdinand. Best defender in britain by a country mile.
McManus’s out, I put Ferdinand in his place. Lampard won’t play this game right? So I preffer Barry or Ferguson.
Ferguson is rubbish.
He’s better than Lampard. Although I think Steven Davis would do well in this team too.
In a england shirt though i think i’d be better than Lampard. Davis is a good shout though

How has Scott Brown not got a mention? He’s miles better than ferguson or davis.
lets be fair Gordon is the only player who would step into the team who isnt english… the rest are simply not good enough to displace the first team england squad.
