when i did my predictions, i ended up with a spain v england final. can't see us handling their movement, but capello could certainly do a job on them
There's only one reason Torres didn't feature as first choice (apart from the fact it's a meaningless warm-up) and that's because he's just coming back to full fitness from a serious operation and a period of not playing. Only a lunatic would risk him full-on at this stage.
Villa and Torres up front is first choice, no doubt at all!
If it was a choice between them, I'm sure Villa would get picked though. Just compare their caps/goals.
That's the scary thing, they can play with 5 of the best midfielders in the world with Villa upfront and if that doesn't work out they just bring on Torres for Alonso/Fabregas/Xavi/Iniesta/Silva.
