So it looks inevitable that Harry Redknapp will become England manager one day (unless Roy
Hodgson gatecrashes the party and becomes even more unpopular). He'll probably take charge at the
end of the season, and so we've tried to predict the 11 players he'd do well to pick.
We're aware that the teams lacking a lot of experience, apart from Rooney, Parker and Baines
(Hart too, to some extent), so maybe Jones could drop to the bench to be replaced by an older
head.

With news of Fabio Capello's departure from the England post yesterday came the expected flood
of "experts" speculating on potential replacements based on nothing more than years' old rumors.
With names ranging from the seemingly pre-agreed upon alternate Harry Redknapp, to Ian Holloway,
Stuart Pearce and Guus Hiddink, there was a disturbing trend towards the English manager.

Who would want to be the England manager? It seems far more trouble than it's worth. The Three
Lions' new caretaker boss, Stuart Pearce, is now feeling the heat from the nation's press, after
his brother's far-right views were once again highlighted by the newspapers.

England's Euro 2012 plans have been thrown into disarray after Fabio Capello stepped down as
national team manager.
Capello's resignation came after he publicly disagreed with the Football Association's decision to
strip John Terry of the England captaincy.
He spoke out against the FA on Italian state broadcaster RAI on Sunday and resigned after a meeting
with the FA on Wednesday.

Stuart Pearce will take on the seemingly poisoned chalice that is the English national team job
— for now.
Following the resignation of former manager Fabio Capello, the country has gone into a frenzy as
the Football Association begins its search for a new coach.
English football in 'shambles' shocker. With a major tournament around the corner, the FA intervene
and strip John Terry of the England captain without consulting the manager. The manager resigns.
England have no captain, no manager and naff all chance of winning Euro 2012.
In many ways, I don't blame Fabio Capello for leaving.
One of the disadvantages of working a paying job whilst trying to build a readership on your own
blog is that sometimes we get blindsided by events that need immediate reporting such as we saw
today in London as England manager Fabio Capello resigned his position immediately following a
meeting with FA Chairman David Bernstein.
STARTERSFabio Capello has quit as coach of England, over the FA's decision to not allow the idiot John
Terry to be captain.
-I guess Capello felt undermined by the decision and could not be in charge of his team at Euro
2012.
-Stuart Pearce has been named interim head coach.
Wasn't it always going to end this way? Ironically.
Enough!
With Fabio Capello's rumored brush-up with John Terry again John Terry! at World Cup 2010 in
mind here at TSG, Capello resigned his England post today, taking umbrage with the English FA for
usurping his power and "de-captaining" John Terry last week.
Today (Wednesday) the FA and Fabio Capello are expected to meet over the John Terry situation,
and it appears that neither side is willing to concede anything to the other.
Capello will be asked by Football Association chairman David Bernstein to explain why he
committed a serious breach of FA protocol in his explosive Italian television interview on
Sunday.
With both Euro 2012 and the Olympics getting underway this summer, it is perhaps no surprise
that speculation has been rife over who will make it into Fabio Capello's final squad for Poland
and Ukraine, and who is in line for a call up for Stuart Pearce's Olympic Team GB squad and the
Euro 2012 betting odds for one youngster in particular have just dramatically
shortened.
Summer 2012 needs to see a change in direction in Arsenal's transfer policy. Out must go this
incessant desire to collect 15-16 year olds from around the world and expect and hope that they
will develop.
Arsenal have many youngsters in the reserves or on loan for whom the time is ripe for them to be
given their chance.

He may be well and truly into the autumnal phase of his career, however, at 36-years-old, David

David Beckham signs new two-year contract to stay with LA Galaxy, ending PSG speculation
Telegraph.
Former England and Man Utd midfielder David Beckham today signed a new two-year contract
with the LA Galaxy of the MLS, ending all of the bogus press reports linking him with every club in
the Western world and Greater Asia.
Former team-mates and current professionals were among the mourners who attended the funeral of
former Liverpool and Everton defender Gary Ablett.
The 46-year-old died on New Year's Day after a 16-month battle with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish and Everton boss David Moyes were present at the city's Anglican
Cathedral along with many of Ablett's team-mates – including John Barnes, Alan Hansen, Mark
Lawrenson, Duncan Ferguson, Matt Jackson and David Unsworth – and other contemporaries from the
1980s and early 1990s.

Great Britain's Olympic football team will be denied England's best players after Stuart Pearce
announced that nobody involved in Euro 2012 will be considered for selection for the London
Games.
Not even one of the faces of African soccer is immune to punishment of the harshest kind.
The Cameroonian Football Federation banned captain and star forward Samuel Eto'o 15 matches for
his role in a players' strike last month. Eto'o can appeal the punishment over the course of the
next two weeks, but if it is upheld, the ban could signal the end of the 30-year-old Eto'o's
international career, considering the length of the ban and the bad blood between player and
federation.
Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson says he wants to captain Team GB at the Olympic Games after

also manage the British Olympic side.

Danny Welbeck's withdrawal from England's Under 21 squad was the only one to attract the
headlines but Kyle Walker has also forgone the opportunity to add to his haul of caps at this
level. As many people expected, Walker has broken through at White Hart Lane this season to make
the right back slot his own and he will have a vital role to play at Newcastle on Sunday.
After spending the summer representing England with the Under-21 squad, Danny Welbeck has made
the step up to the senior team.
Wayne Rooney was sent off in England's last game against Montenegro which gave Welbeck the
opportunity to show what he could do.
"We moved on as a team," said Joe Hart after the game.
Liverpool faces an anxious wait over the fitness of Martin Kelly after he was sent home from
England U21 duty with a groin problem.
The 21-year-old defender played 90 minutes for Stuart Pearce's side as they beat Iceland 3-0 in
Rekjavik in their Euro 2013 qualifier on Thursday night.
But he complained of tightness in his groin afterwards and, after consulting with the England
medical staff, it was decided that he should return to Merseyside as a precautionary measure.
Last night Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain scored a hat-trick for the England Under-21′s against Iceland
and his performance has earned him high praise from his international boss Stuart Pearce. 'Psycho'
as Pearce is more commonly known spoke to Sky Sports News about Oxlade-Chamberlain and said, "He
gave us a real cutting edge.
