Fab laughs at England's plight

IT'S FAIR to say that Fabio Capello is realistic about England's chances in this weekend's friendly against Spain.

"We've got no players!" he laughed as he said during an interview with Madrid-based newspaper Marca. Uh-oh...

In truth, England only ever had one. Wayne Rooney's three-match suspension for the European Championship means that there's no point in playing him, a fact that the Manchester United forward has accepted without dispute.
