So the (real) starting lineups are set and Capello’s is decidedly workmanlike. In other words, those predictions I made yesterday have been put to shame. It’s a sign of respect for the United States national team and moreso a signal England’s boss isn’t anywhere near ready to incorporate a youth movements. Anyway, clasp arms together now as I come through for my walk of shame — the same one this very England side has perfected over the past season:

PREDICTION HITS (6): Terry, Brown, Beckham, Lampard, Gerrard, Rooney

PREDICTION MISSES (5): Green, Bridge, Lescott, Downing, Barry
