I would take the duo:
Carvalho + Jorge Andrade
over any english CB duo... sadly, J. Andrade won't be there...

Ok, so you were serious. Since you want a serious debate, can you at least back your claims up, and explain to me _why_ the teams you mention have so much better defences than England?Carlos*ie4 said:gr8 stuff. that's the level of debate we're looking for here
And he isn't. There's other players too who's up there with him. Thierry Henry for instance.::shinji:: said:England's defence is definitely one of the best, but at this level of football you really can't clearly say who's on top. There are like 5 or 6 countries along with England who's defences are all equally great, they may have certain aspects that are better or worse but it's not so black and white. It's not a situation like saying Ronaldinho is the world's best, where he really is head and shoulders above the rest...

Shifty the monkey said:WHY WON'T SVEN PLAY CARRICK!
imagine that back four with the support of Carrick jus infront, which will also improve the attack as it gives Gerrard much more freedom to produce the magic he does for liverpool.

Now that just proves your hate has blinded you.Carlos*ie4 said:Italy, Spain, Argentina, Czech Republic, Denmark, Holland & France.
And that's just the ones I can think of without hesitation.
Although I should point out that the defence I set out for England isn't necessarily the one I would pick if I was Eriksson. I'd have Ledley King instead of Ferdinand. And b4 someone says it, I know King is injured right now.

I mean we see similar posts in regards to Rangers, and now England.
Carlos*ie4 said:where are these "I hate Rangers" posts then? There is a thread from November called "Let's all laugh at Rangers" but that was supposed to be a joke!
France in 2004, 1 up, 90th minute, result: 2-1 to France. A loss to Northern Ireland in the WC qualifying group. It's also interesting that England hardly ever lose a goal to a header (Helder Postiga's equaliser in Euro 2004 is the only recent one I can think of). It's almost always shots which suggests to me they are average over the ground; and I include John Terry in that.

Aight, Gerrard would find himself a place there tho.
