Walcott & Lennon in England squad

Walcott & Lennon in England squad

With the injured Rooney and Owen taking up two places Sven has went with out-of-form Peter Crouch and 17 year old Theo Walcott who's never played a game in the top level of domestic football never mind international level.

I assume he's hoping for a bit of an Owen98 or Rooney04 effect but it seems kind of ricky to pin all your hopes on that happening, especially when the kid in question is completely un-tested. I'd have gone with Defoe but I'm not the manager.
