My end of season Player Awards will be along over the next week or so but I thought I'd give Fabio Capello a hand and pick an England squad based on WSFFL performances. If he's stuck for a selection he could do worse than to check this list out...
Goalkeepers: Rob Green (Nil Satis), Joe Hart (Dead Parrots), Paul Robinson (Boston Rock)
Defenders: Leighton Baines (Fabulous Artisans), Jamie Carragher (Trusted), Ashley Cole (Real Muppets), Jody Craddock (Mega Bucks), Michael Dawson (Trusted), Danny Higginbotham (Fred West), Ryan Shawcross (Trusted), John Terry (Boston Rock), Stephen Warnock (Dead Parrots)
Midfielders: Matthew Etherington (CFJs), Steven Gerrard (Trusted), Frank Lampard (Boston Rock), James Milner (Boston Rock), Shaun Wright-Phillips (Boston Rock), Ashley Young (Fabulous Artisans)
Attackers: Darren Bent (Boston Rock), Carlton Cole (Final Fantasy), Peter Crouch (York's), Jermain Defoe (Boston Rock), Wayne Rooney (Claymore Ath)
One more defender and one fewer midfielder than I might have liked but that's the way the numbers have shaken out.
No place for David James who played second fiddle to Joe Hart at the Parrots this season and who did Paul Robinson offend to get overlooked? The much-injured Rio Ferdinand and Glen Johnson are passed over for surprise selections Higginbotham and Craddock.
The nature of our game means no defensive midfielders make the cut so a forward-looking midfield group with an emphasis on getting the ball wide. Up front, there's no place for Emile Heskey who had a ropey season at Mega Bucks. Okus rivals Final Fantasy get Carlton Cole in as a sole selection from that club.
