Capello has announced his preliminary 30-man World Cup squad for England.
Goalkeepers: Joe Hart (Manchester City), David James (Portsmouth), Robert Green (West Ham).
Defenders: Leighton Baines (Everton), Jamie Carragher (Liverpool), Ashley Cole (Chelsea), Michael Dawson (Tottenham), Rio Ferdinand (Manchester United), Glen Johnson (Liverpool), Ledley King (Tottenham), John Terry (Chelsea), Matthew Upson (West Ham), Stephen Warnock (Aston Villa).
Midfielders: Gareth Barry (Manchester City), Michael Carrick (Manchester United), Joe Cole (Chelsea), Steven Gerrard (Liverpool), Tom Huddlestone (Tottenham), Adam Johnson (Manchester City), Frank Lampard (Chelsea), Aaron Lennon (Tottenham), James Milner (Aston Villa), Scott Parker (West Ham), Theo Walcott (Arsenal), Shaun Wright-Phillips (Manchester City).
Forwards: Darren Bent (Sunderland), Peter Crouch (Tottenham), Jermain Defoe (Tottenham), Emile Heskey (Aston Villa), Wayne Rooney (Manchester United).
Some surprising additions. Adam Johnson and Michael Dawson? But question is, who will be regulars in the first team. Slightly ashamed that Chelsea has got 4 players in the squad while Man Utd is tied with Liverpool with 3 players each. Bearing in mind Capello can only bring 23 players to South Africa, I am afraid that number may be reduced. Kudos to Tottenham for having the most number of players in the list (6 players).
Players I wish who had made to the list: Beckham (injured), Owen (injured), Gary Neville (a bit stale), Ben Foster (lack of first team experience) Phil Neville, Owen Hargreaves (forever injured). Ok, ok, so they are all players with Man Utd credentials. What can I say, I am biased.
Will be interesting to see how England does without last world cup's star players Beckham and Hargreaves. It must be bloody heartbreaking for both players. Cries!!!!!
And Owen, that poor poor boy. Denied by injury again.
