I was listening to a podcast the other week and I think it was Marcotti who said, the current English players have never tasted any success at any international level, so, he said players like Rooney, Lennon and the other U21 players in the senior squad should be called up to the U21 squad for the upcoming Championship because with these players, the squad should have a very good chance at qualifying.

I quite like the idea, although I doubt Mcclaren will indulge it. It could be good to teach the players what it's like to win in an England shirt and it could help mould the England team of the future if they start off as a successful youth team.

Opinions?
