Shows how poor other CB's were?

If any Englishman should go in, its Joe Cole. As it stands none of them really fully deserve it.

What baffles me more is Henry is there. :confused:

Why?

Would have prefered Podolski to Henry. Also a bit harsh that no players from the african nations got in there, especially after Ghana's good run.

cos he's awesome?

The squad shouldnt be based on that though, hes hardly been as awesome as we have seen him be has he.
Also i thought Ferdinand had a better world cup than Terry.

In the World Cup? Interesting.

I think some of the names icked are down to pressure from member countries and sponsors.

Joe Cole is really different typical English midfield. He poses a constant threat to the defenders when he dribbles and tries to beat them. He also scored a cracking goal. However, I think he needs to improve his game in defence.

Never question FIFA's decisions, ever.

Terry deserves to be in there solely for his clearance of *** line agaisnt T+T.
