England: 1 Siobhan Chamberlain, 2 Alex Scott (12 Lindsay Johnson 71), 3 Casey Stoney, 4 Anita Asante, 5 Faye White, 6 Mary Philip, 7 Karen Carney, 8 Jill Scott, 9 Kelly Smith, 10 Fara Williams, 11 Rachel Yankey

Subs Not Used: 13 Carly Telford, 14 Lianne Sanderson, 15 Rachel Unitt, 16 Jody Handley, 17 Laura Bassett, 18 Emily Westwood

No center forward obviously Kelly playing up front in a 4-3-3
Don't know what Lianne has to do to start a competitive game ? Maybe score 50 goals a season ?

Good news guys and gals

England's qualifier against Czech Republic on the 20th March will be shown live on BBC3

Finally the people that be are listening

That is a change

Aluko s back in the england squad for kelly who is suspended well they did not understand it then...

Why is Kelly suspended?

consecutive yellows in qualifying games

Oh dear she's been trying to get people to go to the england game I know at leeds and the league cup she was asking people if they were going.

I'll give you all a wave if I am on TV in my A Scott shirt

We'll be watching out for you

Thanks mate

I really hope they don't start aluko in front of Lianne again? Lianne is nearly at 40 goals this season Aluko has not reached double figure yet...

I bet they do start with her though

Maybe if she doesn't always get to start, it will motivate her to practice putting the ball in the net.

There's only gonna be one change Thursady night and that's for Smith. It's now between Aluko and Sanderson for that one spot. I'm praying she goes for Lianne , her goal record speaks for itself this season.

Sanderson to play definately! Please Hope, please Hope, please Hope see the sense!!

PLUS it's on BBC3 wooooo hoooo

Have things got so bad so bad now that it's time for begging JM

Please pick lianne I can't forsee it though

Same, honestly Aluko does not bring as much as Lianne in term of all around play so it's a mystery to me why she is chosen. Actually it's not its because she is faster. Or maybe Lianne does not defend enough

It has indeed! I'll be infront of the tv on my knees poking Hope in the eyes if I see Aluko in the starting XI

You'll be hoping she takes her specs off then

I think they will pick that team :

Chamberlain
Scott White Phillip Stoney
Asante Williams Scott
Carney Aluko Yankey

personally I would get this one

Chamberlain
Scott Stoney Phillip Unitt
Asante Scott
Williams
Carney Sanderson Yankey

Thiw ay you can use Lianne strentghin front instaed of relying on pace exclusively to get behind the opposition defense.

It'll be interesting to see how they cope without Chapman and Smith. One of em has always been there with Williams.

Team selected is close to shlj's choice, apart from White for Unitt, and Westwood for Jill Scott.

I'm sure we're all happy with Hope's choice to replace Lianne with Eni at HT
Johnno on for Philip too, although they mentioned a possible knock.
