Shaun Wright-Phillips/Stewart Downing Over Ashley Young Is A Decision I Don't Agree With At All, What Else Does He Need To Do To Win Fabio Cappelo Over?...

Neither Downing or SWP deserve to be replaced given their recent performance(s) for England.

To be fair to Downing he was superb on his last outing for England. Why isn't Lampard playing? Is he injured? I like the look of the side. I think finally, we're seeing a bit of depth in England. We're missing Rooney, Lampard, Gerrard, Walcott, Ferdinand and Wes Brown who have all been regulars.

I think it looks like a promising team. Good to see jagielka and carrick in there.

No Frank Lampard Is Benched And Quite Rightly So...

To be fair, I think he's done pretty well for both Chelsea and England recently. Although both Carrick and Barry have been in superb form also.

Good to see Capello doesn't juts pick players based on reputation.

Yes I Agree Although I Would Have Ashley Young In Over Shaun Wright-Phillips Nothing Against SWP But Ashley Young Deserves His Chance To Impress In An England Shirt...

When was the last time Carrick played before tonight?

Is this his first appearance under Capello?

It'd certainly be interesting to see a Young/Agbonlahor partnership up front internationally, although with the boy wonder almost ready to come back I can't see them being given a chance long term.
