England - Euro 2004

He was shit in Japan. People have been spouting that line for 2 years now, all because that dickhead Pele said Butt was England's best player at the World Cup. People tend to ignore the fact that Pele says crazy shit all the time. I'd always have Scott Parker in there ahead of Butt, because he is infinitely more dynamic. Butt is a poor man's David Batty. Slow, no imagination, not a particularly good passer, and always looks sideways or backwards.

Butt has been wank his whole career, There is a reason he has never broken into the United first team properly, and it's because he isn't good enough.

Phil Neville is a more useful utility player than Carragher. Utility players are overrated, anyway. You need two players per position, and a couple of goalkeepers, and that fills the squad. If Wes Brown goes, as he should, there is an extra option at full back. Gary Neville can also fill in at centre back.

If Sven wants versatility, he should be bringing Chris Sutton, because not only is Sutton quality, but he can play in attack, midfield and defence. In fact, Sutton should probably be considered as a striking option anyway, but that is a different story.
