Without Rooney is like cutting of a leg.  Who will score the goals then?  I don't believe Owen will do the job, because he isn't up to par.

Most agree their is no English striker who can replace Wayne Rooney. In this case, why not bring in Carrick, who has had an excellent season, as a holding midfielder. This would allow both Gerrard and Lampard to undertake attacking roles (supporting Owen) in which they have played this season. They have both scored more than Rooney this season for clubs, but tend to underperform for England due to defensive duties, which would be filled by Carrick.

Don't be stupid sloop...Sven's done a great job with England,his records excellent,and if he manages to win the cup for us he will be every ones hero and all will be begging him to stay on,He is a world class manager!i do think that Maclaren will be good as well but this is Sven's time and Maclaren will have his time!\n\nGoing back to the question...i trust Sven's decisions on who he takes and will back him all the way.he has the option to change Rooney at the last minute if needed and i think that Owen will be ready so no..its a good squad,and i think we have a great chance!COME ON SVEN'S ENGLAND!!!\n\nOh and i think Theo's a masterstroke.

So he's the best eh? How many did he score? How far has he taken his team?\nWhich big clubs are racing for his signature?\n\nTry to be neutral, your bias is so flawed, no reasoned person can accept your suggestion.

World class maybe no but very use full player to have around, I would have him in my team always, cause he brings a lot of high balls down ( no defender can out jump him ), he reminds me of me, maybe that is one more reason I like him. Good luck for England!

Well I watched the England celeb's v England legends that was played at Craven Cottage yesterday, and I have to say, the celeb's looked quite good, but the legends were excellent. They countered the better fitness of the younger celeb team, by exceptional positional play, and silky skills, and they linked up very well together, especially as some had never played with each other before. Beardsley looked dangerous enough that he should still be in the Premiership, and Seaman probably kept them from winning easily with some great first half saves.\nIf the rest of the world can link up together like legends did, I am sorry to say, but I think ROW should do it.\n(P.S - Send Beardsley to partner Owen in Rooney is not fit!!)

I'd love to see Henry and Rooney.  They have different styles and would make an exciting tandem, I think.

Owen will be ready though maybe not 100%..he and Crouch will start. I either of them underperform, Walcott wil go in (and then we'll see if Sven's selection of him over Shaun Wright Phillips is justified..I think its NOT)

I dont remember a game when he scored 4 but i dont think that was your question really, was it? Why dont you go back to school - maybe you could study the history of Michael Owen whilst you are learning English.

He's one of the greats, and he is underrated. I think he is probably the only striker who can score any kind of goal. Probably a long with Van Basten and Shevchenko. One of the best using his head, the greatest penalty taker and just a attitude to football. Sad to see him retire.

...yep I like that...especially when the team is not doing so well they could look down at their top for inspiration...I think it would look good. good idea...England could use bigger stars, as they'd have less! lol (-:

Owen has about 36 goals for England the most memorable of them I would say is the one against Argentina, which got him noticed around the world not just in the prem, and the Hat-rick against Germany in the 5-1 Victory. The record was Bobby Charlton's 49 goals I think Lineker may have equalled that or got 48. I think Owen will prob beat that but then may be beaten by Rooney not long after.

i'm a fan of lampard too. yes he'll do it but owen, becks, rooney, crouch, gerrard can also do that

I would love to see him playing with some of the world's best players even if he would get very little playing time. For example, look at Theo Walcott. I think they are very similiar situations. Walcott has improved SO much by moving to arsenal even if he only gets to play 10 minutes a game. And I think whatever he learns in england he will be able to apply to the US national team. \n\nOn top of all of this, I am a Man U fan so I am excited to see what happens.

The options are Owen, Crouch, Defoe, Bent.\n\nI would personally play Owen up front with Joe Cole playing an attacking midfielder role supported by Lampard and Gerrard with a defensive midfielder behind them (King, Jenas, Hargreaves).\n\nIf not, it will probably have to be an Owen and Crouch partnership up front with Defoe providing a spark off the bench.
