Capello – picks 30 players for a training squad (why not 23/ 24 if worried about Barry?!) Says before the two games that there are three places up for grabs, and then says afterwards he knew the 23 all along and has not changed his mind! Picks four players in both warm up games then leaves them out completely. Has never given one player a minute on the field since he’s been manager, then picks him in the final 23! Picks one two players in his 30 and does not give them any playing time in two warm up games! Picks players that are not first choice for their clubs and several players who have been out of form towards the end of the season and leaves out one in favour of another who has lost his club place to the player being left behind!. Picks a striker that 90% of the country knows is woeful. Leaves out his 2nd choice goal scoring striker in favour of someone who has been outscored in 4 of the last 5 seasons in the Premier League by the player left out! Picks a player who barely trains and struggles to play two games in a week. Begs (asks 7 times!) an old donkey of a player to come out of retirement, this a player over 30, who has had his worst season ever, and is only interested in coming back as his club is not in the Champions League next season. Has no specialist cover for right back. Does not know who his first choice keeper is……….
…and people say Maradona is barmy!
