Revolution-gate…
Was Terry right to speak out? Do England’s players need to grow up? Has Capello lost the dressing room? Will any of it make a difference on Wednesday?!

Changes seem inevitable for England, but will it be enough?

It looks like Fabio Capello might finally alter his formation for the crucial game against Slovenia on Wednesday, but is too much emphasis being place on the wrong personnel…
