Comparing Downing with Xavi is the funniest thing I've ever read.

No,get me right. I am not comparing their abilities. I was just using xavi's nature as an example. A great player who never had attractive individual statistics,that was what i was trying to say. Actually,i am neither a fan of the two. So,i was just trying to rescue downing .

Went through all the above posts and here is what i feel -

1. Downing shouldn't have been included (and this is a Liverpool fan saying )

2. Including Carroll can be justified particularly the way he played in last few matches(touch wood )

3. Glen Johnson was one of the nominees for the best right back in EPL in the last 20 years (so someone raising questions on his ability needs to be ignored)

4. How can you think about including Scholes? The man rejected Capello's offer to join the run-up for WC 2010 saying he wanted to spend time with his family. So its better we leave him serving SAF.

5. Not having Kyle Walker might have been harsh but what can you do when you have limited spots for defenders.

P.S : I don't see Downing matching Xavi in the next 2-3 years or so. (Hope I'm wrong )

Lennon is too easy to mark , i mean all he has is speed and nothing else
but he would be great to have in a team that play Ariel style like England
