Two lions

Robert Green and Matthew Upson shaded it as my joint men of the match against Croatia. Green did well to make a double save for Croatia's goal, but was let down by some Gary Breen-style defending, while Upson was dependable and made telling tackles.

Now all Capello needs to do is to bring in a third Hammer, the lethal goal-scoring machine that is Carlton Cole, (at least he's lethal compared to Emile Heskey) and we'll win the World Cup in South Africa.

WHU today confirm the signing of Franco - not a midfield general, but a forward. He is 32 and out of contract with a Spanish club, let's hopte that unlike Diego tristan he is the Villareal thing...

At least we now have Cole, Diamante, Franco, Nouble and Hines to choose from... and some bloke called Kieron Dyer, if he really exists.
