Its not that English football isnt great. We have a lot of very talented players, buts its my understanding that playing for the national team is an honor based on your club form not your reputation. Sven and McClaren who were notorious for picking teams based on their players reputations regardless of their club form should be sacked its as simple as that. Whats the point of having a national team when you have cirtain players playing at the top of their game who deserve to be played, yet you have lampard, Joe Cole and Crouch (who has hardly even played) ahead of them, even if they're not playing or playing extremely poor. And its not because we dont have strength in depth, just take a look at who should be called up and we have a team capable of beating anyone on their day no matter how you throw in. England is NOT a club team, its supposed to be made up of Englands form players, so why cant the manager trust his other players who actually deserve to be in their on their club form? Look at Italy, thats how you manage an International team. You mix and match your team based on the opposition and the players club form. Until we get a manager who's willing to do the right thing, which is to give a player a start based on the reason he is called up, his FORM... England are going nowhere,

What's wrong with England is we have a useless coach who can't pick a team, arrogant, clueless. Why on earth put Carson in goal? Why leave Becks on the bench? We should get rid of all the foreign money grabbers from the Premier league and give our own lads a chance to play at the highest level. Then only will you have good home grown talent and English football will be great again.
