Farewell Fabio?

So, with England now duly out of the World Cup, I'm on Part 2 of my analysis of the game, and the tournament so far. And the one question that now needs answering is this - should Fabio go?

I've been a big fan of Capello, but have always seen that the one problem we faced as a team was a lack of change. I genuinely believe that the best football we played under Capello was when we changed to 4-3-3 for 20 minutes against Japan. We've won 19 of the 27 games under his tenure, but he still insists on playing very defensive, very cautious football, and it's not how England should be playing.

We typically play 4 across the back, and a flat four midfield, but we should be playing to our strengths - and we have an abundance of wingers to get in the team. So why not play them?! I would have played 4-3-3 from the start at this World Cup, with Lennon and Joe Cole on the wings, Wayne up front by himself, and Gareth Barry in a holding role, with Gerrard and Lampard in front of him. It would have played to our strengths.

But will Fabio resign? Will the FA even go as far as sacking him?

I think he will stay, certainly until the start of Euro 2012 qualifying. Should we start poorly, he will walk. The FA don't have the money to kick him out themselves - not after Sven and Steve McLaren. We shall see what happens next, but Fabio certainly needs to change things around a bit.
