Pascal Chimbonda would be welcomed into the England team, no doubt about it! Hwas named in this year's Professional Footballer's Association team of the year, which is not bad for a defender playing for such a 'small' club as Wigan Athletic. Everyone in England has been very impressed with him - he's one of those players (often French, for some reason) who are well-respected by all fans. He hasn't played though, so he's earned me nil points so far. It's a big surprise to hear the French reaction to his inclusion in the squad. He deserves the reward though.
I can see the confusion about Giuly, Pires (classy player) and Anelka, but I have to confess that I don't really know much about Dhorasoo. The fact that such players as Giuly, Pires and Anelka can be left out shows the extent to which you have quality players available, though - for all the supposed qualities of this English football generation, it has to be said that we do not have that luxury.
