Under Capello I'm sure they would overcome this stupid habit of hitting
long balls into Crouch. With the ball at his feet he's as good as anyone

The main problem with the England team has always been its
susceptibility to the vagaries of the media who have been the impetus
behind sacking every manager since Alf Ramsey (well they wanted his
head before 1966 IIRC), and who have undermined every trophy campaign
since. If Capello can keep them at bay, and the FA's old farts ignore
them (as they should but never do), then we might get a competitive
side out of the best group of players we've had in decades. If he
slips up at all then we'll be in the same old spiral where the
headlines are about the manager and not the games. A big hairy bomb
at whichever hotel the media are staying at in T&T (I doubt there will
be many if the slimeballs missing this trip) would be the best thing
that could happen to English football, not to mention journalism.
