Still Aston Villa player starts for England tonight against Mexico at Wembley

Green

G.Johnson, Ferdinand, King, Baines

Walcott, Gerrard, Carrick, Milner

Crouch,Rooney

He appears to be starting on the left and I am sure he will have a decent game to help seal a starting place against the US in a couple of weeks or so.

Whether we need him to have a decent game from a Villa point of view is a rather mute point.

EDIT: appears Milner is playing central midfield over and above Gerrard, Capello really does rate him

However has to be said that Milner has been average at best and playing too deep when compared to Villa

2nd half Milner had finally looked better moved to the left and showed much better for the performance as the whole team seemed so much more balanced. His natural position at international level should be as the supporting attacking midfielder.
