I’ll see how he goes on. For me I wanted Rooney and Owen up front, they are the best strike partnership for England and we can rarely play both of them so why not play them. It’s vital Gerrard and Cole break forward into the box and do what they are good at and let Hargreaves worry about defending the back 4. If they don’t it just wont work and it’ll be exactly like it was under the previous managers, they get frustrated become lacklustre and just play long ball. Hopefully they will play to their strengths get a good result and if they do get side tracked Capello wont stand for it.
