Share it Pin It Fabio Capello has named the England squad for friendlies against Spain and Sweden, with Micah Richards left out despite some excellent performances this termEngland are just a few months away from heading out to Poland and / or Ukraine to compete in the Euro 2012 finals and Fabio Capello will be looking to get plenty of pointers from forthcoming friendly matches against Spain and Sweden.There are certainly plenty of talking points, with Daniel Sturridge and Jack Rodwell getting called into the England squad for the very first time, while Kyle Walker and David Stockdale are also included.John Terry has also been named despite some serious allegations of racism against the England captain and it is even more surprising that Micah Richards has been omitted on the basis that he is a first-team regular for Premier League leaders Manchester City.Capello is clearly a fan of Sturridge and seems to be particularly impressed with his versatility."He's an interesting player and a player who scores goals," said Capello. "I've seen him play right wing, left and centre-forward. He has improved a lot."England squad: Hart (Manchester City), Carson (Bursaspor), Stockdale (Ipswich Town); G Johnson (Liverpool), Jones (Man Utd), Cahill (Bolton Wanderers), Terry, Cole (both Chelsea), Baines, Jagielka (both Everton), Lescott (Man City), Walker (Tottenham); Lampard (Chelsea), Rodwell (Everton), Downing (Liverpool), Barry (Man City), A Johnson (Man City), Milner (Man City), Parker (Tottenham), Walcott (Arsenal); Bent (Aston Villa), Sturridge (Chelsea), Agbonlahor (Aston Villa), Zamora (Fulham), Welbeck (Man Utd).
