People are enjoying slagging off Capello and the team before the WC begins

based on these recent friendly games yet the 3 biggest games Capello has managed so far yielded this:

Croatia 1 - 4 England
England 5 - 1 Croatia
England 2 - 1 Croatia

I have enjoyed bashing the England national team as much as anyone over the years and knew we didn't stand a chance. (1998 was the last time I had faith). I don't get why this set-up hasn't had more confidence placed in it actually.
