Just play Joe Cole

Just play Joe Cole

If ever England needed to put in a convincing display for the pride of their nation it is on Wednesday against Slovenia. We need to win. Nothing else is acceptable, and we need to win in style if England are to progress further.

Another thing England need to do to progress further is play Joe Cole. England need to dominate the midfield on Wednesday and so to do that, Capello should play five in the middle with Rooney up on his own, supported by Joe Cole and Gerrard. I've said previously on this website that Heskey will not get goals or win games, and at the moment he isn't even doing what he is supposedly best at - making Rooney play well. The Heskey system isn't working, so the "iron fist" should make it's move and cut Heskey out.

You should play players where they are good at playing. The team that I feel should play on Wednesday, taking into account the players Capello has said he will start or is likely to start is as follows

D. James - Obviously in Goal

G. Johnson - Right Back

J. Terry - Centre Back

M. Upson - Centre Back

A. Cole - Left Back

G. Barry -  Centre Defensive Midfield, can push into Gerrards pos. if Gerrard pushes up

A. Lennon - Right Wing

F. Lampard - Centre Midfield

S. Gerrard - Centre Midfield / Rooney Support

J.Cole - Left Midfield / Rooney Support

W. Rooney - Lone Striker with Gerrard and Cole's attacking support
