England have some great young players in the making, and this is where the new blood comes in, we have to start now.

Its no good having players in there such as Gerrard, Terry etc (and l am not having a dig) but England always select the same 'old' players. Rooney for example should have been sent home as he was totally unfit, and should not have been on the pitch.

We were not playing a championship side, we were playing the 'gold' of football, and therefore should have had the players there suitable for the challenge.

I was saying to my son, What was the point of having Defoe (yes l am a Spurs fan) on the tour and not play him, he has the experience of big matches. At least he could have taken over from Rooney.
