    "Whether you like him or not he is by far and away our best playe" Based on his Man U performances I'd be inclined to agree. However based on his performances for England I'm nothing like as sure.

    I don't get this "best player" nonsense. Exactly what did he do in South Africa?

    Leave him at home. We're in the same situation now we were in when Beckham was injured where everyone seems to think we need him to be succesful.

    Personally I don't think we do. I'd have A.Johnson down the left, Downing down the right with Young playing just behind or up with Bent.

    Young, Bent and Downing played well together at Villa and have an understanding. Plus we all know how well Young and Johnson played here. Admittedly it's a different level but both players have come on since then too.

    Plus as said previously he will just be targeted ala Ronaldo!

    I can't believe people are even debating whether he'll go to the Euro's or not, of course he'll still go.

    I checked teletext first thing this mornign at 5:30 whilst feeding the baby HOPING to see this news , i am chuffed , i hate the man , i hate his arraogance and the fact he cant control himself on the pitch at the detriment to our country , again and again , yet is happy to take the obscene salary he gets paid without a blink

    a vile boy , who needs leaving at home next summer...

    And old alex ferguson , i dont mind him sometimes but he is in the media saying , it was just a `litle kick` and that is just the way rooney rolls , and wheres the real harm , you have to laugh , even more os at the FA for appealing when as someone further up says , violent conduct = 3 match ban , always has done , how is this any different ?

    Lets not get too het up on getting an English manager as many have failed in the recent 3/4 decades (Robson and Venables apart)...including our own GT ofcourse.
    Well , between Robson , Venables , GT and Sven and Capello , that eats up quite a few of those 3/4 decades!!

    He has made eight appearances at the last two major tournaments, had only seven shots on target and scored zero goals. I would love to see him left at home but it won't happen.

    Hasn't Capello got the highest win percentage of any long term England manager/coach?

    Ofcourse..but my point was we haven't been blessed with the best of form even with an Englishman in charge expect for the odd tournament.

    Yeah, that tension as you sat there waiting for the page to change. Then you had the occasional mistake, causing all kinds of confusion.

    i would not take him he did wrong so he should not go ..let another forward have a go...
    if we do make it past the group stages it will be unfair on the player that gets drop for WR..
    but i do also think that if another player would of got a 1 match ban England always seem to get pick on

    Yes he is a thick scouse **** but to miss probably now the whole of a major tournement in the prime of his career still seems a bit much for what really was one second of madness. He will probably only have 2 further tournements left after that. I know rules are rules but the tournement would be the batter for an in form Rooney on fire.

    Just my take.
