Bent may be in form but I still wouldn't trust him to net if we needed a goal (although to be fair, I wouldn't trust the others either) I just think the others do specific jobs better i.e. Heskey/Crouch as the hold-up men and Defoe as poacher.

Carrick? The guy's been anonymous all season.
Give it to Huddlestone, he's been immense for Spurs all season & deserves it the most.

Agreed on Hargreaves but I think experience is key in the holding role at international level and Huddlestone doesn't have this. I think Capello will have serious reservations about his tactical discipline. I've got a feeling he won't be first choice for Spurs next season in their Champ league games.
Who knows though, I could be wrong (probably am) and that's why I'm not paid millions a year to make these decisions.
