Does the England Soccer Team Have What It Takes fo

England's solitary Soccer Worldcup triumph was a home win in 1966. However this victory is now a distant recollection as the team failed to attest their cup as presumed,http://www.guide-you.net/forum/index....html#msg28732, in 1970. Their failure to qualify in three world soccer qualifying games has also impacted the team's overall success.

But, following a wave of inferior performance under Sven-Goran Eriksson and Steve McClaren, there seems to be a new lift of energy in the team thanks to coach Fabio Capello. With a new spark of possibility for the Three Lions' squad, the team needs to recuperate their image. With their present display of confidence and the fact that the weather conditions throughout the South Africa Worldcup 2010 will be to their benefit,http://hotfmnigeria.com/test/community/user_blog.php, England absolutely stand a chance of at least gaining a semi-final place.

The Champion Soccer Worldcup Players

Manchester United forward Wayne Rooney has presented immense commitment and is the leading goal scorer having scored 9 goals in 9 matches. Supporting goal scorers are midfielders Steven Gerrard (3) and Frank Lampard (4). Front-man Peter Crouch is not to be excluded with his four strikes in as many games and Tottenham's Jermain Defoe flaunting his skill with 3 goals in only 135 minutes of play. John Terry and Frank Lampard (10) have had the most Soccer Worldcup appearances of the Three Lions' soccer team.

England's Coach

Fabio Capello was born on June 18,http://fearlesscomrades.com/pg///dis...e.php?pos=-293, 1946 in San Canzian d'Isonzo,http://fearlesscomrades.com/pg///dis...ge.php?pos=-43, Italy and has been awarded numerous honors including multiple Serie A and La Liga titles. As a player for Italy, Capello's greatest game was ironically in 1973 against England at Wembley. Known for his authoritarian style, Capello has had a considerable effect on the England soccer team and has reshaped them from a situation of desolation to one of hope as they enter the South Africa Worldcup 2010 as true candidates.
