to be completly honest im not to bothered about rio being out for the tournament, he is a great defender when he is on form but he isnt at the moment, he's been injured all season so wasnt going to be sharp anyway, and ledley king is a much better player! with rio at the moment i just expect stupid mistakes, like against holland in a friendly earlier this season

Apparently Duran Duran have re-released an old classic for the World Cup... "His name is Rio and he watches from the stand!"

This will be a blessing in disguise mark my words. Rio hasn't been playing well for two years and has been injured for the most of the last year. This also removes one of the biggest ego's from the dressing room which can only be a good thing, and being replaced by someone who is actually really hungry to be at the world cup.

You do realise that Ledley King cant train properly, if at all, inbetween games because of his dodgy knees? He may of had a good season at Spurs but has he really been tested against the top stikers in the world? Not saying Rio would have been fit for the job either after a shambles of a season at Old Trafford but he has the experience of previous seasons to go on which in world tournaments you really need.

Whilst I feel sorry for Rio on a personal level as it's every bloke's dream to lead England out at a World Cup, if we can't manage without him then that doesn't say a lot for our squad. Carra will be a more than suitable replacement, even if he's not had the best of years either.

 

 

Anyone know who the vice captain is now? Lampard? Rooney?
