Why Fabio must go


He tried, he failed. He promised results, he didn't deliver. More than a day after one of the most pathetic performances and the screaming for his sacking are louder than ever. Cabbage Man brought on his "youth" and they were outclassed by a French side that was just as much in rebuilding mode as the Three Lions.


Let's face it England should be routing lesser nations like Montenegro, not playing them to a scoreless draw. Fabio played players like Kieran Gibbs who can't even break in to the Arsenal squad. I understand England needs more youth but if you aren't getting any time with your club team you shouldn't be getting any minutes with your national team. The same goes for any other high profile national team.


Yesterday, we saw an England team that looked like a bunch of lost little boys, they were blitzed by French aces Florent Malouda and Samir Nasri. And so called English aces like Rio Ferdinand were out muscled, outplayed, and outsmarted by Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema. Who's to blame? None other than Fabio Capello. His strategies fail to live up to what they are supposed to be.


Steven Gerrard is by far the best England player and what happened to him yesterday? He was lost. To me Fabio Capello has a corvette ( in Steven Gerrard) but doesn't know how to drive it. That can't happen, it's time to go. He has been given enough chances but Capello has shown that he is just not cut out to be an international manager.


And a foreigner, who is still using the 4-4-2 should be sacked on the spot. Let's face it, it's time to close the book on the outdated system that provides little to no room for creative central midfielders. We saw what happened, when a quality side went up against a 4-4-2 in the World Cup when Germany thrashed England. Results like this will continue I'm sure if Capello stays as manager.

  1. Why does Capello do favorites when one of his main rules is to get games and play well for your club first?
