He's probably injured isn't he?

I think I'd rather have Neil Taylor and Bertrand anyway.

It's been quite windy this week though, he might've picked up a serious injury.

What's Danny Rose doing there? He's not too bad at left back but awful everywhere else. Is it a case of Pearce picking someone he's familiar with because he doesn't have that long with the squad because I can't believe there aren't better British wingers than him.

No real need for 3 left backs though and I'd have him a long way behind Tayor and Bertrand.

The Stuart Pearce original. Looking forward to seeing how Butland copes as the lone forward.

if that happened there'd still be RFC fans pointing out that McCarthy once scored 12 goals in a Sunday league season playing up fornt

I'm sure there'll be comments about Brazil's formidable record, with them always being favourites etc etc.

Brazil have never won the olympics football.

54 minutes in and getting tired of hearing "Team GB" already. "Great Britain" shurely, all the other nations are referred to by country.
