Fabio Capello may have led England to one of its best starts in a World Cup qualification campaign. However, as the Three Lions’ last outing against European Champions Spain suggests, there is still a lot of learning to do for Mr. Capello before he gets his starting eleven completely right. At least I feel this way.

To start the likes of Phil Jagielka and Stewart Downing is not exactly irrational. But given that Capello had a determined Micah Richards and an in-form Ashley Young on the bench that night, these decisions came as…

With the anticipation growing over what England’s new kit will look like, it appears that some images of the jersey in all of its glory have been leaked on the internet.

I can’t help but think England fans are getting ripped off on this one. The jersey looks just like a plain polo that you can buy at Walmart with a big England shield stitched on. In the picture, John Terry even looks uncomfortable sporting the Three Lions. Is it just me or does he look like he’s suffocating?

Well, that’s just my…

Following what we can all agree was utterly astonishing news regarding Harry Redknapp’s switch to Tottenham, Tony Adams has taken over at the Fratton Park helm, an appointment which has initially gone down rather well with the Portsmouth faithful.

Its evident that Tony Adams has been weighing the job up ever since Redknapp approached the ex-Gunner to become his number 2 way back in 2006 following an unsuccessful spell as Wycombe Wanderers manager; a theory which Harry openly admitted in his first Spurs press conference.

With no hero in sight, it looked like this lack of form would carry over into the season.

Wayne Rooney - who was previously said to be the savior - started to stall and lose English fans’ confidence. Just a…

The suits of the English Premier League are constantly thinking of ways to make the sport and the league better, and this summer two major changes were implemented. First, the FA chose to introduce a special “respect” campaign which will (hypothetically) eliminate abuse of match officials. The second change, and the more effective one, allows Premiership clubs to name seven subs to the bench. The old rule only allowed five.

Your initial reaction might be something like “but what does having two more players on the bench have to do with the…

In the wake of England’s disappointing performance against the Czech Republic, Premiership Talk takes a look at the five players who have proven themselves in the English Premier League and deserve a call-up. Nominate your players by joining the Premiership Talk Forum.

1. Gabriel Agbonlahor. Agbonlahor is an extremely pacy winger/striker for Aston Villa who can almost always be counted on to come up with the goods. Gabriel made a loud and clear statement to England manager Fabio Capello on the opening day of the season as he grabbed the first hat…
