              The FA never gave me a chance.

              I'm going to steer the cuban national team to win 2014.

                  Defenders are essentially there to defend, to put their body on the line, to be decisive, show that no nonsense approach, which suits the average England player down to the ground.
                  I always found centre-half the easiest position to play. Though I wasn't getting destroyed by anybody who was even half-good. Or just massive.

                  The main focus: Don't be a pussy and stop everybody else from playing football.

                  I reckon more or less, there are usually 16 players playing football on the pitch, then you have 4 centre-halves trying to destroy it and two goalkeepers. That's why it's such an advantage if you have a defender who is a good footballer since they get a lot of the ball it presents another option.

                  I also think full-back is the hardest position on the field. If you have an under-performing full-back you're usually losing games. Ferriera and Bosingwa between them have cost us a few games. I don't know why anyone would be a full-back. You have to support the attack and not get caught out, you have to defend the back post usually against bigger stronger men and often you are isolated one-one with a winger.

                  I'd like a full-back to get the golden ball one year. It's a nightmare position. I really do think Ashley Cole is one of the best players in the world.

                    The most talented ones might be...

                    Rodwell, Wilshere, McEachran, Ravel Morrison, Aneke.

                    But we also have kids like Wickham, and Nick Powell, who Wenger tried to sign for 2 mil. I dont know much about Powell, accept he apparently has good technique, close control, now I know this might be a Crewe fan going overboard, but I read how one Crewe supporter compared him to Messi, although that is probably in terms of style, what with his apparent close control, ability to drift with the ball.

                    Alex Chamberlain, Raheem Sterling, Gibbs, Nathan Chalobah, Shelvey, Jay Emanuel Thomas seem like other promising youngsters.

                    Apparently Gus Poyet lad plays for England to, never seen him, but if he's half as good as his dad, could be another good player for England (Diego Poyet). Arsenal have a talented defensive midfield player called Emanuel Frimpong, but he has African roots and has said, that he might consider playing for his home land, although I dont think he's made a decision either way yet.

                    I reckon the next England side will certainly be more cohesive, cause there will be technical players in it with better control.
                    From what i've seen of Jay Emmanuel-Thomas he looks like a very good talent. Will be interesting to see how he does at Cardiff on loan if he plays much. Also i've watched Lansbury a bit and he's definatley got some potential. Other youngsters that wern't mentioned are Albrighton, Cleverly, Henderson, Muamba, Danny Rose and A Johnson. For the strikeforce we got Welbeck, Sturridge and Carroll.

                    As for defenders i think Gibbs is our future LWB, i already think he can do the job better than Clichy for Arsenal, another LB to look at is Ciaran Clark. We got Dawson, Cahill, Smalling, Phil Jones for CB. RB is always a tricky spot for England, our best bet right now is Micah Richards although some don't think he will amount to anything, he certainly has the physique and atheleticism to suceed plus he's only 22 with much to learn. Other than him there's Mancienne (who i don't rate), Martin Kelly who i think has impressed since playing in the first team for Liverpool and Kyle Walker + Kyle Naughton both on loan from Tottenham.

                    The future always looks bright for England, we've said it many times before but who knows maybe this time we might build a team capable of passing and keeping the ball and winning something?!

                      agee with the full-back position, Jose Enrique is in the top 4 left backs in the premier league and i won't be suprised if he gets a Spain call up
