Hopefully, their are many like Gerrard, Lampard, Beckham, Owen, Cole, Wright Phillips. Terry, Campbell, that is if we get a corner or two.\n\nBe optimistic and positive, hopefully we are not a one man team

good chance he might come on as a sub,england short of strikers and rooney isn't fully fit

No kidding.  How many goals does he plan to score?  Probably no Rooney, limited Owen at best.  Crouch is just tall, but there are plenty of midfielders to cross it to him.  After Crouch, Walcott and a bunch of other teenagers in reserve with one cap between them. Good luck to the English.  Probably will not win their group and may not make it to the round of 16 at all.

If rooney is 100% fit, lampard continues with his form, john terry awesome defending, crouch capitalizes on his chances, gerrard commanding the midfield, becks with his free kicks...\n\nnot sure what your question is, but that's my assessment of england....

england and michael owen

Rooney is a given, Owen as well if he is healthy (hopefully he is!), Peter Crouch seems to be a popular choice, and he provides some serious mis-match situations for defenders, Jermaine Defoe should be going, but doesn't see enough first team time in league play, Dean Ashton would be an interesting choice as a powerful, strong, physical forward, and Darren Bent is a pretty decent choice as well.

England:- if they win this game they qualify the group stages, but after a poor performance against paraguy they need to up there game. It is looking like Wayne Rooney Englands best striker will play some of the match but not all 90 minutes. Failing that Theo Wallcot is likely to come on.\n\nT&T:- Managed asuprise draw against sweden and have it all to play for especially when second place is deffinetely up for grabs

Since Rooney is not yet certified to be starting the first game, i will pick OWEN MICHAEL

no walcott is a different type of player...more like Thierry Henry...skilful, fast and graceful. Rooney's game is a power game, he's the natural successor to Alan Shearer... I'd say the better question is - will Walcott eventually replace Michael Owen and be Rooney's permanent partner for England? The answer is likely yes but not for a while.

give owen a break. If you look at how he's played in previous world cups... and he's still only 26. Look at his record, he's already one of the best in England and if he continues, he'll be the best ever (on paper). His prime hasn't even begun yet. Look at Henry who was critizised heavily until he reached his prime. Now he's considered one of the world's best.\nI think the main reason for his poor form is his injury. Also, it's a team game and England are not providing owen with the right balls. The midfield isn't helping the attack enough and with owen being a predatory striker and requiring the ball to be given to him on a plate (which is all a striker needs to do), he's not getting the balls in the back of the net.\nYeah, good for crouch who's having a good time at the moment, but look how he was critizised until very recently. He missed a lot of easy shots (by england standards) in that game aswell. But I wouldn't write off owen just yet because he's there main striker, even if rooney is the best player.

It may be Rooney and C.Ronaldo

I don't understand why you would answer a question if your just going to give a stupid answer. Rooney? Beckham? Terry? Best!!!? The only player around now who could be considered is Shearer but he hasn't won anything. It can only be a player who helped to win us the world cup so I would say Bobby Charlton as he's also Englands top ever goal scorer.

England's chances of winning the World Cup are hanging in the balance after Wayne Rooney yesterday become the latest big-name footballer to suffer a foot injury.\n\nThe 20-year-old striker - England's most influential player - was carried off the pitch on a stretcher when he fell badly on his right foot after 82 minutes of Manchester United's 3-0 defeat at Chelsea. Rooney was later seen getting on to United's team bus before they headed back to Manchester, where he was due to have a scan on his right foot and ankle.\n\nThe seriousness of his injury was unclear, but it sparked immediate fears that it will prevent him playing in some or all of England's games at this summer's World Cup in Germany, which starts on 9 June. David Beckham and his teammates play Paraguay in their opening game in Group B in Frankfurt in 40 days' time. The England manager, Sven Goran Eriksson, Football Association officials and millions of fans across the country are hoping that the prodigiously talented forward - who is the hub of the England team - has not suffered a broken metatarsal in his right foot, the same injury which forced him out of England's last major tournament, the 2004 European Championships in Portugal.\n\nRooney's involvement in the game yesterday ended when he fell awkwardly after a tackle by Chelsea's Portuguese defender, Paulo Ferreira. He lay on the ground, in obvious pain, for several minutes before being put on to a stretcher and carried away, to loud applause from both sets of fans.\n\nIronically, it was another Portuguese defender, Jorge Andrade, who caused Rooney's first foot injury when he trod on him in the Portugal-England quarter-final in Lisbon, which England later lost on penalties.\n\nSir Alex Ferguson, the United manager, declined to speculate on how serious the injury was. 'We don't know. We'll have to wait until we get to Manchester,' he said. 'He's being looked after and we'll see. When a player is taken off we're always concerned, but hopefully Wayne's is not a bad one. It's a sore one, but we'll just have to wait and see. There's no point in making assertions at the moment.'\n\nIf Rooney cannot play in Germany, his absence will seriously diminish England's chances of capturing the World Cup for the first time in 40 years. Bookmakers have made them second favourites behind holders Brazil, but without the talismanic Rooney they would lack much of their creativity, attacking prowess and capacity to surprise opponents.\n\nIf the worst is confirmed, it will be a heavy blow for Eriksson, who is already concerned about the fitness of England's other main striker, Newcastle United's Michael Owen. He broke a metatarsal during a match against Spurs last December and has not played since.\n\nThe Swede also has injury concerns about Arsenal defender Sol Campbell, Spurs utility player Ledley King, Arsenal left-back Ashley Cole and Rooney's United and England colleague Gary Neville, who also picked up an injury yesterday. So, too, did Chelsea captain John Terry - England's first choice centre-half - but neither his nor Neville's injuries are thought to endanger their chances of appearing in the World Cup.\n\nA lengthening list of high-profile English players have suffered a broken metatarsal in recent years. Beckham, the England captain, did so in April 2002 while playing for United and appeared for England in the World Cup in Japan and South Korea three months later, despite being not fully fit. Foot injuries are increasingly common in top-level football, and are particularly troublesome because they mean that someone who has one cannot put his weight comfortably on the foot concerned.\n\nEriksson has to submit a provisional list of 23 players for the World Cup to Fifa, football's world governing body, by 8 May, with a final list a week later. Rooney's predicament may cause him problems similar to t

I think Crouch is used as a sneaky alternative. He's relatively new and he is a bit rubbish, and other people have clocked on, but with accurate long balls from people like Beckham, they reach Crouch's head and if he's lucky he can direct the header in the path of someone who can score with their feet, or in the back of the net. \nI think owen is their best striker and rooney is the best at assisting owen in a strike partnership as he sort of connects midfield with attack.\nSo, I think Crouch should really just be used as a sub and to suprise people, that's all.
