If you want to look at the silver lining, if Pato gets injured he'll get looked at by some decent doctors...

No players that played at the Euros were going to be selected, so this is a pretty decent squad considering.
J Allen (Swansea), C Bellamy (Liverpool), R Bertrand (Chelsea), J Butland (Birmingham), S Caulker (Tottenham), T Cleverley (Manchester United), J Cork (Southampton), C Dawson (West Brom), R Giggs (Manchester United), A Ramsey (Arsenal), M Richards (Manchester City), D Rose (Tottenham), S Sinclair (Swansea), M Sordell (Bolton), J Steele (Middlesbrough), D Sturridge (Chelsea), N Taylor (Swansea), J Tomkins (West Ham)
---------------- Butland Richards - Tomkins - Caulker - Taylor ---- Cleverley - Ramsey - Giggs --- Sturridge - Bellamy - Sinclair
Front 6 is pretty good considering. Shame there's no Scottish or N.Irish representation, Bannan would've been a good selection in my opinion, not too sure of the N.Irish team though. Bale getting injured will hurt too. Overrated, but he's more than good enough for an U23 tournement.

QUOTE (kurtsimonw @ May 24 2012, 08:07 PM) Really interested to see what the GB squad will be. Ideally Scotland/Wales decide to allow their players to take part, they have some good young talent who would make the squad. How do you feel about Beckham not been included? QUOTE (Zed.D @ May 24 2012, 08:14 PM) Anyway, can't see Brazil winning it. maybe Spain. Argghhh! Please no.
