I am no great fan of Crouch, but at least he has some experience of playing in high level games, unlike Walcott.  I really do think that taking Walcott was a massive mistake. He may be a great future talent, but that is what it is, the future not now.

Crouch did nothing yesterday and seeing as he was on a yellow already, another booking would have rendered him out for the next game anyway. And also, we could afford to lose the game, so why not bring on Walcott? He's played at under 21 national games - how is he supposed to get experience if the swede won't even play him? Waste of a plane ticket if you ask me. The swede should also have taken Defoe with him. Sometimes, I think the swede wants England to lose...
