Are you 100% - not 90%, but 100%? Are you are ready? He said yes," said Capello."He said he's OK and said 'If you decide, I'm ready to play'. He trained normally without an injection."I have always done two things in my career before I decide about a player. I always speak with the doctors. I ask the doctor whether they can play or not. He says he can."Jagielka will partner former Toffees team mate Joleon Lescott in defence with Glen Johnson, controversially selected ahead of Lescott's fellow Manchester City defender Micah Richards playing at right back. Ashley Cole will make up the four man defence, which will aim to keep the like of David Villa, Fernando Torres and David Silva away from Joe Hart's goal.Phil Jones will start as a holding midfielder, alongside Scott Parker allowing Lampard to push forward to support lone striker Darren Bent with Theo Walcott and Stewart Downing expected to play on the wings.England team to face Spain (unconfirmed):Hart, Johnson, Lescott, Jagielka, Cole, Walcott, Jones, Parker, Lampard, Downing, Bent Read our Ladbrokes review Use code MAXIMUMBONUS to get £50 free at Ladbrokes Like Like Post to wall 157 Reads All Football News Recent Football Articles USA v Scotland Tips Preview25 May 2012Scotland sign off for the summer with an international friendly in the United States on Saturday.
