  • 'In the first half, we were looking good and we thought we could get a positive result,' said the former West Ham defender. 'But, we were brutally punished in the second half.



    'We knew Capello had two options [on the right], either (Theo) Walcott or (David) Beckham.



    'It turned out Walcott was the right choice as he was so exceptionally dangerous. England showed they are a mighty team, probably the best in Europe.'
