Coach: Roy Hodgson
Roy Hodgson announced England's 23-man squad on 16 May 2012, along with a five-man stand-by list. The England team is the only squad to consist entirely of players from their domestic league. On 25 May, John Ruddy was ruled out with a broken finger; Jack Butland was called up as his replacement. On 28 May, Gareth Barry was ruled out with a groin injury, being replaced by Phil Jagielka. On 31 May, Frank Lampard was ruled out with a thigh injury and was replaced by Jordan Henderson. On 3 June, Gary Cahill was ruled out with a double fracture of his jaw and Martin Kelly was called up as his replacement.

England make one change from the team that drew 1-1 with France, as Carroll gets the nod to play upfront alongside Welbeck, with the OX losing his place.

Would have loved to see "Chippen" from the start, but hopefully Sweden has a chance anyway.
We make signature, then defense it.

Imma say draw, because that's what usually ends up happening :s

More realistically, we'll probably lose this, but we'll see.

We always draw with Sweden, we're about even in terms of team (we have a lot more depth but they have the best player on the pitch) and we're extremely defensive and negative and unlikely to score or conceed many goals.

Seems like a nailed on 0-0 or 1-1 to me.

Also what a mind numbingly average team England have these days. Only one player in that front six I'd consider an international quality player and even he's well past his best and being played out of position.

I wonder if we'll use Parker to pick up Ibra and keep Lescott as the sweeper or use both our centre backs and leave a lot of room.

4-4-2 just stacks up so incredibly poorly vs 4-2-3-1 (and it's varients), we're just lucky Sweden lack the dynamism from players other than Ibra to really make use of this tactical mismatch like Spain did to Ireland last night.

Yes I like the changes in the Swedish team. Three players who are thankfully removed:
Lustig (Regular right fullback, but injured and sidelined for a long time before this tournament. He looked lost out there.)
Toivonen (Pretty good player, but a striker asked to play as a winger which didn't work out.)
Rosenberg (He is just not a good player at all at this level.)

Still, I don't have too high hopes. A draw isn't impossible but that probably won't be enough to advance. England will be dangerous on set pieces against this defense.

Ugh, fellow swedes help me out here, just realized SVT only broadcasts SOME of the games on svt play (and not this one), TV4 seems to only offer a stream to premium/paying users.
Are there any international, legal, streams out there?

It's apparently delayed by 15 minutes due to the Ukraine-France game being delayed for an hour.

Heja Sverige!

Gogogo!

The first link of chain forged, the first speech censured, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably.

Sweden must win to be able to go through the group. Because this is the game we can win compared to the next against france.
What happens when England goes for counter attacks and a tight good defensive game and we have to go full hard on attack to win?

Well maybe Hamrén will go for 0-0 in the end if he has the chance, but then the miracle we need is of double value.

It's gonna be a hard one

4-4-2 vs 4-4-1-1 - going to be a tactical battle with both teams choosing very defensive starting formations. Hope Sweden can pull through (Ibra, do it for my fantasy team!). Also, aren't english fans also known for singing? That would be great
