LET me get this straight I think Fabio Capello is a great coach.

He has been at the top of his game for years and Ive no doubts he will get us to the next World Cup finals.

I certainly dont want to fall out with him.

But no one can hide from the fact Englands performance against the Czech Republic was poor. A massive disappointment, not good enough.

Our next game is a World Cup qualifier against Andorra and if we cant beat them, then I think everyone involved in the team should pack in football and do something else.

After Wednesdays match at Wembley, Fabio said the formation was 4-3-2-1.

He insisted Steven Gerrard and Wayne Rooney were both playing behind Jermain Defoe although, to be honest, this confused me.

Firstly, the last time I heard of 3-2-1 was that show with Ted Rogers and Dusty Bin.

Secondly, Gerrard seemed to be playing on the left wing with David Beckham on the right and Frank Lampard and Gareth Barry in the centre.

Id say that was a four-man midfield. Without doubt, Gerrard playing where he was against the Czechs is no good to anyone. He has to be in central midfield where he is world class and can cause the opposition so many problems.

Capello has to get the right shape and as soon as possible. I want England to play 4-5-1, not the formation we tried against the Czechs or 4-4-2.

International football has changed and it has to be with one forward up front with the midfielders shooting forward.

I want Lampard and Gerrard in the centre of midfield so they can press forward. I want a holding midfielder player sat in front of the defence.

At the moment it is Barry, who can kill the ball and pass it. He started out as a central defender, anyway.

Id have Joe Cole on the left and Rooney on the right. They would both be coming in off the line, joining in with the frontman.

Who we play up front is being seen as the problem. I might be biased but Id have Crouchie. He can get hold of the ball, cause problems and bring others into play.

He was disappointed at not being involved for this match but Ive told him to carry on, work hard and hell soon get back into the squad. Ive no doubt about that as he can be a key player for England.

As for the defence, Id stick with the one we had on Wednesday while Id keep Jamo in goal.

It is still so difficult to put your finger on why we do not perform internationally.

These are the best guys Ive seen in years and I find it amazing they dont seem to produce the same form for England. It is very difficult to get to the bottom of it it also really frustrates me.

After what should be a mismatch against Andorra, we go to Croatia on September 10.

Well draw in Croatia, at the very least. We have better players than Croatia much better players so everyone should not be too pessimistic despite our display the other day.

We will raise our game. How many of those Croatians would get into our team?

They play more as a team, Ill admit, and they are all great lads. But we have more quality.

They beat us 3-2 in our final Euro qualifier but thats only because we fielded an inexperienced keeper Scott Carson in what was a major, major match.

His mistake cost us in a game we should have won comfortably.

I know Capellos job is not easy but he will eventually work things out. At the moment, he is still learning about the players.

This is the best group weve had for years and our best chance to win something.

We have to achieve something and that is why we are relying on you, Fabio.
