Young Chelsea Defender Michael Mancienne who is currently on loan at championship side Wolves and has never played a game for Chelsea has been called up to the senior England squad after impressing Capello at several Under-21 outings. Aston Villa strikers Gabby Agbonlahor and Ashley Young have been called up along with Daren Bent and Jermaine Defoe. David Beckham and Michael Owen have been overlooked again. Rio Ferdinand and Wayne Rooney have been ruled out by Sir Alex Ferguson and even though John Terry is in the squad he is not likely to play.
So who will be captain Gerrard ? Lampard? Barry? or Bridge.
