Um - Defoe is a pretty good striker who's started the season as the best English striker around - Eriksson has (finally) picked the man in form and it worked - next step pick the men in form in the midfield (clue - one D. Beckham isn't amongst them - Shaun Wright-Phillips is).

Owen should be rested until he settles in in Spain - Rooney/Defoe, despite being a godawful Man Utd/Spurs combo, are the best partnership around. Gerrard for captain, Lampard, SWP and Bridge for the rest of the midfield.

I'll take 2-1 away against the second best team in the group anytime, and I'm not even a great fan of Sven - too timid and in awe of the big names, but he tried being brave and it worked - here's to a continuation of it.
