Gerrard has one season left in him at best, that slip did cost you the title - no doubt about it. Nitemare for England - at fault for both goals against Uraguay.

He has been at top player over the years -a 9/10 at his best - same as Rooney in his day - but like Rooney, never world class.
Liverpool fans have often said to me he saves it for the big games and I think that's true, he can be quite ineffective in a dreary midweek game.

Rooney for captain - well no, I don't think that's a great idea either

The trouble is, he will be the most experienced outfield player if the line of accession falls to him - but probably not a great idea

Trouble is, there's no one else in that shower who could claim the captains armband

To be honest, I'm fed up to the back teeth of the England team - I would like to see the whole squad ripped up and rebuilt at team level with an average age of 26 or so.

Just promote the youth team - study how Germany play and try to emulate that.
