Is it all worth it?

I have gave up on England, it does not interest me anymore. I will watch my nation and hope them on the best but it seems really hard to support them at the moment.
England has not had a good performance for a long time now, or even a worthy one. The best was probably when we defeated Russia 3-0 at Wembley last year. That is it.
Fabio Capello may be the missing link but he is running out of time to be successful. He needs to get it right. Does he actually know the fundamentals of his squad. Those who will not be playing in 2010 should not be playing now. It does not make sense.
I like to think that every footballer out there aspire to, and dream about playing in a World Cup. I hope every who puts an England shirt on enjoys it and honours it.
Jamie Carragher has came out claiming it hurts more to lose for Liverpool than it does for England. I cannot disagree with that as if Liverpool lose he has to face his kind everyday. He would know he had let down a fellow neighbour. As for England he would be letting down some Millwal thug.
I still agree David Beckham should be in the squad, but not a regular starter. He has not put in a fantastic performance since his heroics against Greece in 2002. He would be there to help Theo Walcott and David Bentley become established internationals.
Ashley Cole looks to comfortable in left back and no one is really pushing him to earn his place which seems very disappointing. Gareth Barry has not played well for a while now. Without Steven Gerrard the team lacks any real passion or urgency.
My ideal England team would be:
David James – he last until he is 40, there is no one better yet.
Micah Richards – Strong, adventurous, and seems a better option than Glen Johnson or Wes Brown.
Ashley Cole – Still our best left back but Wayne Bridge, Leyton Baines, Nicky Shorey, etc really needs to push him for Cole to earn his place.
John Terry – The captain, the inspiration, enough said.
Rio Ferdinand – a good footballing centre half, his understudy should be Jonny Woodgate as their games are pretty similar.
Theo Walcott – He is going to be England’s best player for the next 15 years so why not stick him in now and really get to grips with the scene.
Ashley Young – superb little player, most assists last season he should be a must.
Owen Hargreaves – a decent engine and a perfect player to sit and do the messy work.
Steven Gerrard – The heartbeat and the match winner.
Wayne Rooney – On his day he is fantastic, let him play the game. He needs to be more offensive and stay where he is the most dangerous in the oppositions half.
Michael Owen – he is still our best goalscorer and always comes good on the big stage.
Others who run this team close our Joe Cole, Jonny Woodgate, Gabby Agbonlahor, Gareth Barry, Glen Johnson, Joe Hart and Frank Lampard.
This should the nucleus of the squad and for other players to get in they must be more on top of their game.
Players like Wayne Bridge, David Bentley, Joleon Lescott, Michael Carrick, etc need to be performing week in and week out to deserve to play.
But in all cases, Croatia will be interesting on Wednesday.
