Fabio Capello will probably remain as England manager, though I firmly believe he should do the honourable thing and walk away, only time will tell if he will, but he should. He has made the same errors that Sven made when he was in charge of the England squad and that is trying to cram all of our "best" players into one team and forcing the unworkable to work and it just doesn't work.
England for many years now has lacked balance, balance is key to any strong team, you need to have the right formation and the right players to fit into that formation. Unfortunately for whatever reason(s) the last manager to manage that was Terry Venables.
Fabio's mistake was selecting the wrong twenty three. How on earth can you justify selecting SWP when Adam Johnson is a winger that can beat his man, score goals and cross the ball? He went with "experience over youth" and he paid the price. Lampard has done nothing throughout his entire England career to warrant constant selection. Rooney shouldn't have played in the Slovenia and Germany matches because he was useless (what an overrated footballer he is) Zara makes an excellent point about English players at their clubs. He takes an average Gareth Barry over both Huddlestone and Parker who performed immensely well for their respective clubs. He plays an aging Carragher, an average Upson and an injury-stricken King over an inform Michael Dawson, total madness? He refuses to play Joe Cole and plays a winger who cannot cross the ball in Aaron Lennon? Sorry, but match intelligence is more important than pace. You can have all the pace in the world, but technical ability and match intelligence trumps over pace all the time. The next England manager needs to bring in youth players and bring in players based on form instead of selecting the players that the English media want to see, feck the media. Just look at Maradona, he knows his formation, his style and picks the players accordingly - he doesn't listen to the Argentine press, people questioned him when he picked Palmero, Veron and Gutierrez, but Maradona knew these players were vital to his team and selected them regardless what the Argentine media have said. We need a manager like that, someone who will stand up for himself and now be sub-serviant to the British media.
and to think the English media were mentioning Messi and Rooney in the same breath, before the tournament began.. it was joke then, it's no laffing matter now, if Rooney's the best hope then
