    Alan Pardew today hit out at England boss Fabio Capello as he continues to overlook United stars Joey Barton and Kevin Nolan for the England squad. Pardew has accused Capello of constantly looking to build for the future rather than picking the form players.


    Unfortunately for Nolan he is not in the right age group as far as Capello is concerned - he is looking for players who can be in and around the squad for years to come. I can see the merit in this, however the squad should be picked on current form. Capello suggested he would leave the door open for any play who is doing the business, however this has never really happened and we continue to see the same old faces represent England - and they continue to let our country down.

    Nolan is currently the highest scoring midfielder in the premiership and he deserves a squad call up. Joey Barton is a different story as he is being overlooked for his past problems - a lot like Lee Bowyer who would of surely collected many caps during his years at Leeds if it were not for his off field issues.


    Carlton Palmer, Seth Johnson, David Nugent, and Steve Guppy
    All lads who have England caps

    While I would love see them get an England cap, it's club before country.

    Capello has said he would go with inform players but has been proven not to do this, sticking with the old guard instead.

    Also seems to be changing his mind about captain and may reinstate JT, what a b***** up.

    The two of them are better away from the national squad in my opinion.

    Full of scum.

    Nolan no.

    Barton - Selfishly for my concern about our own club, i'd say absolutely no. But for him and his desire to play for his home country, yes. He deserves to play for England.

    Nolan isn't international standard, but then again neither is Barry. Barton is good enough but no way with the FA in charge.

    Nolan is an average CM player with an above average goal scoring rate, theres better players already in the team.

    Barton is good enough to play a part for definite but I wouldnt want either of them playing, because since its us they would both break their legs within minutes.
