Seriously, does anyone in World Football have a better squad than England?
Calm down, my attempt at ironic humour there...
Now, my point. Come World Cup 2010, should England get there, and Fabio Capello is putting together his 23 man squad; instead of taking three goalkeepers, as is the convention, why not make room for Rory Delap?
Imagine - 119th minute of the World Cup Final and England have a throw.
The board goes up, substitution - Delap for Gerrard (Delap making his debut). Delap winds up a long throw straight onto Crouch's head....GOAL! Simple as that!
After all, if there was room for Walcott at the last World Cup, there must surely be room for Delap?
Does anyone in World football have a better thrown in taker than England??
