Every team suffers injuries so you make sure you've got adequate cover for those situations. The Owen injury proves Sven smokes crack whilst picking the squad.
it aint 'american' term....its the 'official' term....thats how Fifa call it....but of course, you could say "knockout stage" or whateva.....

you sayin he shouldnt have picked Owen in the first place?
Well you got Rooney and Crouch, but of course the big question - will he let Walcott earn his bread? Is Walcott what you call "England's new hope" ?
