Ben Foster (Birmingham), Joe Hart (Manchester City), Paul Robinson (Blackburn Rovers) Wes Brown (Manchester United - he is ALWAYS injured! Even Man U havent played him in pre season!), Gary Cahill (Bolton Wanderers), Ashley Cole (Chelsea - he hates england), Michael Dawson (Tottenham Hotspur), Kieran Gibbs (Arsenal - what has he done to deserve a call up? he played 3 times in the PL last year), Phil Jagielka (Everton), Glen Johnson (Liverpool), John Terry (Chelsea - after what he did he should never get the PRIVILEGE of putting on the three lions again) Gareth Barry (Manchester City - Looked too slow for international competition), Steven Gerrard (Liverpool), Adam Johnson (Manchester City), Frank Lampard (Chelsea - has achieved WHAT? in 10 years for England?), James Milner (Aston Villa), Ashley Young (Aston Villa), Theo Walcott (Arsenal), Jack Wilshere (Arsenal) Darren Bent (Sunderland), Carlton Cole (West Ham United), Wayne Rooney (Manchester United), Bobby Zamora (Fulham - has scored 11 in 61 league games for fulham! Only 8 last year - if it wasnt for one hot streak in europe nobody would be paying him the blindest bit of notice) Capello has made a right **** out of himself here. The Untouchables are still there, and THEY are our problem Why have Lennon, Defoe, Crouch been dropped? They might not be amazing but theyre a damn sight better than Zamora. Where is Joe Cole? For every right decision he has made (i.e. Foster for James) and every decent player he has brought in (Jagielka, A. Johnson) he has ignored the obvious, and cuddles up even closer to the despicable ring of dirt around the bath that is John Terry. The too stupid to play a deeper role Lampard (Gerrard is only safe because he is captain) and the disgace to British football that is Ashley Cole (i wanted to keep him after the world cup but god he is an odious little turd) I look forward to Carragher and Scholes being talked out of retirement in 2012 AGAIN. Well done to Foster - you havent really earnt it yet (other than not being Green or James) but im sure u can take your chance and will grow in stature at blues and make it your place for the next 5+ years. |

:applause: :applause: agree with most of your comments. other than barry i think he can sit in midfield, i just dont see why wilshire young and walcott are in there ahead of other players. no crouch yet cole and zamora? crouch has the best scoring record for england. :redcard: |

Wilshire had a decent 6 months for Bolton. He wil lbe an England player - i dont have any problem blooding him. Young's final ball never looks good enough for England - but his pace...ok i can understand. Walcott wasn't good enough for the squad in June. - He has played 0 competitive fixtures since then..is Capello admitting he was wrong to drop him? Where are cattermole and Richards? - They might not be my choices but why suddenly leave them out of the under 21's AND the full set up? Both play week in week out for their premier side...what message does it show when Gibbs with 7 carling cup and 3 PL apperances, and Wilshire, a handful of loan games for a woeful bolton side get in infront of them? Even Ben and Paul Robinson are only in the side because theyre not Green or James. (To be honest Robinson should have been in the squad anyway - and Ben was a silly buggar by not getting himself first team football - but thats sorted now) |

according to the "Capello index "Defoe was the best player at the world cup, yet he is dropped. What did Warnock do wrong? |

I didn't even notice Warnock was missing. He didn't play a competitive minute in SA...How could he possibly have played his way out of the squad? |

He's just mixed it up. He cant win it seems if he's getting this sort of reaction from dropping a few players and bringing some new blood into the squad. Im all for change after that disastrous World Cup. Kieran Gibbs will be Englands next left back, long term. Jack Wilshere will be a key part of the England squad for years to come too... as will Walcott (he does need to improve still mind), Adam Johnson, Gary Cahill etc. Anybody suddenly expecting the BIG BIG names like Rooney, Terry, Gerrard, Lampard, A.Cole to be dropped will be disappointed, but that was never going to happen really was it, you need a balance between experience and youth. Plus this is only a friendly, so the first competitive squad for the Euro 2012 qualifiers will no doubt be different once more, and the likes of Defoe/Crouch etc may well be back if they start the season well for Spurs and Zamora/Bent etc dont take their chance. |

Shame to see Johnson and Dann overlooked for this friendly would be the perfect oppourtunity to see how they do imo. |

Spurs have something like 7 games in the 1st 3 weeks of the season. I know dawson is in there, but I presume that part of the reason for Crouch, Defoe and Lennon missing is due to this. |

Thats the thing though yo ucant have Dawson in and drop the others and use the excuse they have games. Dawson is the heart of their defence. Has Capello buckled under pressure from Harry? What happens when Alex or Wenger or Ancellotti moans next? Is he accepting your club is more important that your country? That club managers can dictate who plays and when for England? |

And Paul Robinson has now called time on his England career which just leaves the 2 Blues keepers in the England squad. :angel: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/8895425.stm The Football Association says it has no plan to replace him in the squad. |

I don't think I agree with a single one of your comments in bold. It all seems a bit too much like you don't like them and are trying to justify it in footballing terms. |
