Ancelotti and Capello both see / saw him in training, and didn't want to play him

Wenger hasn't, yet. We'll see what happens when he does.

Don't really get your point re Capello. He clearly f*cked some stuff this up tournament. But that doesn't mean he suddenly knows nothing about football. (And when Cole came on, he was indeed rather pointless.)

        I would also take some message from both his club and country manager wanting shot of him. (n/m) (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, Jun 28, 15:53:16
        
        Seems he may be trouble but Capello is paid obscene amounts to (Other Football) - BINMEN8R, Jun 28, 15:55:49

        But without doubt he's technically good and here lies the problem with English (Other Football) - BINMEN8R, Jun 28, 16:04:07
        
        like Ancelotti and Capello, you mean? (n/m) (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, Jun 28, 16:05:17
        
        He's been injiured for fair bit of season and I thought Ancelotti offered him a contract (Other Football) - BINMEN8R, Jun 28, 16:08:34
        
        So just to be clear - the official England fans' line is that we've discovered (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, Jun 28, 16:10:23
        
        Fair point...but Joe Cole should be one of the first names on team sheet. (n/m) (Other Football) - BINMEN8R, Jun 28, 16:20:12

        Come on you cannot genuinely say that Joe Cole isn't a good player? (Other Football) - BINMEN8R, Jun 28, 16:25:40
        
        Capello saw Heskey in training and wanted him to play. (Other Football) - Johnny Comecardiff, Jun 28, 16:01:19
        
        Right. I'm not quite sure what argument we're having here, really. (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, Jun 28, 16:02:59
        
        though Capello still had faith enough in him to include him in his 23 (n/m) (Other Football) - Ralf Scrampton, Jun 28, 16:10:15

        to my mind, that happened as it all began to unravel (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, Jun 28, 16:13:53
        
        But he loved Cole pre cruciate (Other Football) - Old Git, Jun 28, 16:15:14
        
        If that's true, then suggests even more strongly that Cole has gone backwards, (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, Jun 28, 16:20:32
        
        Capello started the B team expecting them to shag Andorra, keeping the A team fresh (Other Football) - Old Git, Jun 28, 16:25:01
        
        So why do you think Capello didn't start him in any games at the tournament (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, Jun 28, 16:27:33
