The side needs freshening up. You have to admire Sven's results, but I susect that it's not just the supporters that want to see people like Lennon and Walcott coming into the team.
I think a lot of the players would too. Obviously none of them want to be dropped, but it seems to me that Lampard, Beckham et al are labouring a little.
I would even consider a 3-5-2 so we could have Cole, Lampard, Gerrard, Beckham and Lennon in an attacking midfield and Rooney and Walcott upfront.

I've just noticed that Wayne Rooney has been banned for 2 games (against the mighty Macedonia and Andorra !) and has also been fined £2,400 for 'that' incident last Saturday.
OK, some would say he deserves it.
On a different page of Teletext it says Maxi Rodriguez, the Argentinian who was caught on camera throwing punches, after the Argentinian defeat to Germany will face the same punishment.
I just wondered if anyone else felt as disappointed about this as I do. Surely, intentional/pre-meditated violent conduct (ie throwing punches) is a much more serious offence than a 'misguided foot' in the heat of the battle.
