no lescott
To be fair Lescott has spent the majority of this season on the bench so can't really argue he deserves a place in the squad.
That being said I'm not certain a guy who will be 35 at the next World Cup is exactly "building for the future". Recalling a 34 year old player who has only played in 18 of his teams 28 games this season really speaks to the lack of quality there is around the England squad at present. I was under the impression that one of the issues with Ferdinand is he needs a while to recover these days between matches, not sure how that will work at a major tournament when you play a fair few games in a very short period of time. If the intention isn't to take him to Brazil then I'd rather we bedded in someone younger now who can contribute at Brazil 2014 and beyond.
