Having a ball holding physical striker, but poor in front of goal, is a luxury England can ill afford, it might work in the Premier League, but not at International level. Strikers should be goal scorers first and ball holders as a secondary feature.
I agree sqad,capello said he'd only pick players in form.
Heskey hasn't been selected for Aston Vanilla's team since February,ironically another English forward of theirs is keeping him out of their very mediocre team.
7 goals in 58 matches now for England...
A very poor return.
We had a Goalie who couldn't catch the bloody Ball, a striker who couldn't score when one to one with Goalie, and a Broadcaster ITV HD who cocked up the Broadcasting when Gerrard scored for England resulting in viewers missing the Goal.
It's no wonder we have not won World Cup since 1966, Squad ! lol
red....LOL. Two speedy wide men were used to get behind the yank defence only to cross to a striker who finds difficulty in scoring.........what chance?
