They talked a lot about these issues on a recent edition of 'Hard Talk' on the BBC where Bilic was invited to give his opinion on the state of English football (he played for West Ham & Everton) along with Gordon Taylor & some journalist. Bilic was pretty sympathetic & said that he would be wary of England in the WC qualifiers & nobody should underestimate them just because of this setback. I've been wanting to see Rob Green wear the England jersey for at least a year now. Will it happen in our lifetimes? I completely agree with this article.

I also dont think Gerrard and Lampard can play together. Gerrard plays crap in holding role and lamps plays crap in the holding role. They both leave the midfield weak if they go up top together. For the good of england id play barry/Hagreaves and Gerrard because Gerrard can play better with the white shirt. I believe Gerrard will play well if played in the right role for england. The part about playing abroad no. English players are more loyal i think and love playing in the league they grew up watching its the same for english lads we would play in england our entire career if we could. I dont think agbonlahor needs a place in the start crouch and rooney are great but they need a natural midfielder witch david beckham is. I agree harasuké about not just playing star names. I think players who are on form with their club should play. Rather than big players who are struggling for true form.

the fa needs someone with balls who can drop stars (like capello) but who can admit wrong decisions n focus the media attention on himself rather on his players(morinho)

in 4-4-2 gerrard should be more defensive n lamps given freedom( not both). there is also 4-5-1 formation.
here both can play alongside n n if need be wingers can be sacrificed to introduce both hargreaves n barry, downing as the mobile electron.but the striker should be crouch not rooney in such a situation. there’s also 3-5-2 ( not rooney n owen ) . interestingly both lamps n gerro can be played as sub- strikers.

england needs players with heart as hesky, crouch not superstars.( n wingers with some defensive talent, hence not swp but joe cole is good enough) yes it helps when stars have heart( rooney, gerrard) but it’s better 2 have a manager who can rest an underperforming player- a quality mc laren just did not have.

How many Italian players, which were picked in the World Cup squad, played abroad in the spring of 2006? None. This has nothing to do with players playing home or abroad. It has to do with a coach able to pick Green and having the courage to bring Agbonlahor into the picture (like you said). Repeatedly I have said that Wenger is the man, but we will never get him. Mourinho has his flaws as does Cappelo, but the are better options than anybody else. Let me ask you something.

Really it looks like its time for one whip-cracking disciplinarian manager like Capello or Mourinho to take over..........
