That is what I am hoping they use
Rooney doesn't need another striker to score, he played by himself most of the time for Man U
and this formation gives them more control of the ball in midfield
I do think they will use 4-4-2 for the group stages, but once it gets to the knockout games I think they go with this one
only place I disagree with him is on his subs, no point to take 5 strikers when Gerrard can always move up and play as an attacking mf/2nd striker. I would drop Heskey (although it will probly be Bent) and add another midfielder
