Alright, so the chances of Fabio Capello reading this (especially since he apparently doesn’t speak English) are nil, but here’s what I’d say to him if he asked for my tuppence on his new job:
Goalkeepers: Paul Robinson is error-prone, with a shattered confidence in international competition. David James is error-prone, sometimes comically so. Scott Carson [...]

1) Commentary from Ian Wright and Alan Shearer (gues which isn’t impressed with Peter Crouch).

“England Victims of Constant Tinkering”
I mean, I wasn’t [...]

I know it seems I have an Andy Johnson fetish, but especially after Lil’ Mick looked so lost against Hungary I feel that the newly-minted Toffee should be on Sven’s squad.
Anyway, Johnson speaks here about his new squad and his national team hopes.
Bully for him!

Over at The Mail and The Mirror.
As ever, particularly in the press, England will eat itself.
