England v SwitzerlandInternational Friendly8pm, Wednesday 6 February 2008Wembley StadiumFabio Capello has named a provisional 30-man squad for his first game in charge of England, with Switzerland the opponents at Wembley on Wednesday.Speaking about the squad, Capello said: "I have selected a squad of 30 players as I think it is important that all the players are equal from the beginning."There are a lot of games before we join up and I think it is better that we are prepared for any injuries. This way we are not expecting to call players up as late replacements when I name a 23-man squad on Saturday evening."Franco Baldini and I have been watching many games since we arrived in England and we have tried to see as many English players as possible before deciding on the squad. There were a number of players that we already knew about but there are many we have seen playing live for the first time."We will use the time between now and our first World Cup qualifying match in September to look at the players and find the best formula for the England team. I will also look at players who have not been included in the squad this time."I have also worked very closely with Stuart Pearce on squad selection and there are some players like Joe Hart, Aaron Lennon, Theo Walcott and David Wheater who are with the U21s this time because they have a very important qualification game against Ireland on Tuesday. In the future these are players that could feature in the senior squad. I believe it is very important for everyone that the U21 team does well and I want to help them achieve success with Stuart."I know there has been a lot of discussion about David Beckham. The reason that David is not in the squad is because he has not had any real match practice since playing in November. When I spoke with David on the phone yesterday I advised him that he is still part of my plans and once he is playing regularly in America we will look closely at him again."I will go to the Manchester City - Arsenal match on Saturday, while Franco Baldini will watch Tottenham - Manchester United before I name the final 23-man squad on Saturday."

I'm disappointed there's no Rob Green. Capello's a twit for choosing Kirkland ahead of him.Davies and Heskey... *SMH*Hopefully the Italian knows what he wants from the team and the style of play otherwise Capello will be beheaded by the media as too.
