Absolutely!On the evidence so far Slovenia will be feeling confident of beating our lot.The performance against Algeria was pitiful,Capello needs to change things or we will be out.Perhaps it's time to ditch 4-4-2 and gamble on a new formation?I would switch to a 4-4-1-1 formation,my team would be LB A Cole,CB Terry,CB Dawson,RB Johnson,LM J Cole,CM Barry,CM Lampard,RM Lennon,Support striker Gerrard and centre forward Rooney.Bringing in Joe Cole would in my opinion add the creativity that has been lacking and giving Gerrard a more forward role would provide the energy and drive the forward line has been devoid of in recent matches.
As for Wayne Rooney,If he feels the England supporters let the team down by booing at the final whistle he should replay the match and listen to the English supporters voices rise above even the vuvuzela's as they sang the national anthem several times in the second half in an attempt to encourage their team,the mardy little git.
The criticism of England and Rooney's actions overshadowed a spirited effort from the Algerians,credit where credit is due they showed admirable commitment and effort.
