CHAMPIONS KEEP PLAYING UNTIL THEY GET IT RIGHT - Billie Jean King

Does Capello have England's best interest at heart?

Today, Don Fabio warned Rooney that he wouldn't play him unless he finds his form? I wonder does Don Fabio understand what he is saying with his understanding of English. He has just told possibly England's best player, he has to hit form to represent the country.

He gets paid 6 million pounds a year, the highest paid National Manager in the world, and this is what he comes up with? I've been wondering for some time now, it Fabio is the right man to lead England or if he is an Italian agent working against the English cause. I'm no England fan myself and knew that they would fail in Africa. The hype is just that, hype. The facts are that they do have the most exciting league in the world, but is it the best? Well, the best players are in Spain aren't they?

Then we have the England squad for SA, which was injury filled and seemed lost. They started badly and then lost the plot totally. Coming back from that debacle, Fabio says he will focus on the youngsters then picks Kevin Davies for his next squad. Kevin Davies?

There are a crop of youngsters in England, Adam Johnson, Ton Huddlestone, Ashley Young, Gabby Agbonlahor, James Milner, Micah Richards, Jack Wilshere just to name a few, who should be nurtured NOW to be considered for the next Euro.

Of these, I think Johnson, Young, Wilshere and definately Huddlestone should be given a chance.

Which brings me back to the start of this article, would you send a player a out there if he wasn't on form? That just sends the wrong message. You can be a marquee name but in the worst form as well. Fabio needs ALL his players at their best. Not just Rooney.

That is, if he's managing England for the English.
