As for Green I think he's probably the only certain pick for the next game. I'd have gone for Hart from the beginning but even if he wanted to change him (and besides the one mistake, he'd have no cause to) Capello has to let Green redeem himself. The only thing stopping that is Green himself: if he doesn't recover in training. But then I think he'd go for James over Hart.
I'd love to see Capello gamble with joe Cole in the next game. I think our ranking is gonna come down to goal difference and Cole does atleast send the message of outright blitzkrieg, especially if you pair Rooney up with Defoe instead of Heskey (even though I thought he was excellent today) or Crouch. We have to assume we're gonna beat Algeria and Slovenia so the aim has to be by how much. Capello's caution in that area may be the difference between us getting 1st and 2nd. (I'm assuming the US will beat them both too)

I love Jermaine Defoe, he's a yiddo, but he aint good enough to win tings for us. No Joe Cole, he aint the solution to the problem. Lennon did well, way better than WrightWphillips or Milner. i say we stick with the two shortarses next week
Crouch isnt in contention now after Heskeys performance. But if we get past the group stages, Crouch may be the better man to partner Rooney
