England Vs Algeria

I agree Capello should tell them which team he will be playing but I also beleive that these players get paid a lot of money and they know whats at stake.

I heard a interview with Wayne Rooney the other day complaining they are not allowed to leave the Hotel at night for Entertainment, capello has banned them, well hello you are here to play football not go out and make prat out of youself, why do you think he has banned you ... Does Gerrard punching a DJ ring any bells or John playboy terry playing around ring any bells, of course he is going to ban you, are not trusted!!!

These players are part of the biggest sporting comp in the world and all they think about is their pleasure... send then back home!

.... but you have to question management that insist on atheletes at the peak of their performance spending 5 hours a day relaxing in their rooms - all that will do is make them stir crazy and depressed, between that and not knowing who is playing until the bus is leaving for the ground it's no wonder they don't come out of the traps quickly and are pretty aimless for most of the game.

The squad shoudl know who is playing a couple of days beforehand and practicing as a unit against the 2nd string so they at least know how to play the ball to each other.

Capello is being paid millions to get the best Englilsh players to perform - I blame him not the players - not even Terry

Oh come on! These are supposed to be the top players in the land, they are supposed to be able to handle the pressure, they should be able to adapt.

Telling them two days beforehand makes no difference. The facts ared that they are nowhere near as good as they think they are, and when it comes to doing it, they haven't got it.

Miya ... I don't think they want to go out and find a dentist's chair like the teams of old; but as you say they are professionals and they know that being forced to stay in their rooms when they have pent up energy isn't good for their match preparation either.

There needs to be a balance between rest and action
