15 cities are being visited for England 2018/2022 World Cup bids. How many different stadia are usually used for a World Cup? I know 8 were used for Euro96, so I'd have thought there would be more. 1. Birmingham 2. Bristol 3. Derby 4. Hull 5. Leeds 6. Leicester 7. Liverpool 8. London 9. Manchester 10. Milton Keynes 11. Newcastle and Gateshead 12. Nottingham 13. Portsmouth 14. Sheffield 15. Sunderland If there's 10, it'll surely have to go.. Birmingham: Villa Park Liverpool: Anfield London: Emirites Stadium, White Hart Lane, Upton Park & Wembley Manchester: Old Trafford & COMS Newcastle: St. James' Sunderland: Stadium of Light Goodison Park, Elland Road, the Riverside and Stamford Bridge would be the next ones to be considered I'd have thought. But if there's 2 stadia per group, then we'd need another 2 after that.. it'd be weird seeing Bristol or Sheffield used at a World Cup. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

True. Decided to pin this one since the qualification is going to be an important part of the upcoming season.

QUOTE Goalkeepers: Ben Foster (Manchester United), Robert Green (West Ham United), Paul Robinson (Blackburn Rovers)
Defenders: Wayne Bridge (Manchester City), Ashley Cole (Chelsea), Rio Ferdinand (Manchester United), Glen Johnson (Liverpool), Joleon Lescott (Everton), John Terry (Chelsea), Matthew Upson (West Ham United)
Midfielders: Gareth Barry (Manchester City), David Beckham (LA Galaxy), Michael Carrick (Manchester United), Steven Gerrard (Liverpool), Frank Lampard (Chelsea), James Milner (Aston Villa), Theo Walcott (Arsenal), Shaun Wright-Phillips (Manchester City), Ashley Young (Aston Villa)
Forwards: Carlton Cole (West Ham United), Jermain Defoe(Tottenham Hotspur), Emile Heskey (Aston Villa), Wayne Rooney (Manchester United) Looks like Fabio isn't keeping tradition and wasting friendlies. Good to see players like Beckham, Gerrard, Lampard and Rooney called up as they are unknowns who have really impressed in recent years. Let's see how they handle Internationals.

Not sure it's been noted but Lippi called up both Criscito and Marchisio for Italy's upcoming friendly. He did NOT call up Rino, but Zambrotta and Pirlo did get called up.
