  • England announce squad numbers

Official England World Cup squad numbers released.

The squad numbers for England’s World Cup team have been officially released.

Following the announcement of Fabio Capello’s 23-man selection on Tuesday and the submission of that group to FIFA, the squad numbers were still being debated as the team set off for South Africa yesterday (Wednesday).

However, following FIFA’s release of squad details for all nations taking part at the World Cup, all speculation can now stop.

  • Good Luck...save when you play the States! US 3- England 1 with a brace for Dempsey!By PetericL (35 months ago)
  • Can't agree with David "butter fingers" James as number one. Sure he's a great keeper in his own right, but one too many sloppy mistakes at crucial moments for my liking. But what do I know? I DO however have faith in Capello's experience, and endless belief in England.By Leigh (35 months ago)
