It always annoys me, when England are in the shit, we always have a panic stations response. No doubt the papers tomorrow will be full of tripe, saying that we need less foreigners in the game in order to develop talent. I think that with the players available, we should have qualified for that tournament - given the team we have.

Anyway thats not what I wanted to focus on here.

The papers will no doubt be focused on future talent and how to nurture players in the future. The powers that be, seem to think that we need to have some sort of FA Academy to bring through the players of tomorrow. I would argue, can we trust them to do the job properly?

This is the same FA who chose Steve McLaren as England manager. The same FA that allowed the Wembley pitch to be (a) shit in the first place & then (b) knackered even further by an NFL game.

Can we trust the FA with the next generation of England players? Would having a cap on foreigners help?

Hmmmmm
