33% voted for He knows best...

Blackburn Rovers 30-year-old goalkeeper Paul Robinson announced his retirement from international football just a few hours after receiving the call up from Capello for the friendly game against Hungary. He wasn't part of the World Cup squad and never played under Capello, those could be the reasons behind the decision. Robinson explained: "As a professional who wants to play every time I have the chance I don't see myself as a number three or four keeper and find that role very frustrating. I haven't had the opportunity of anything other than this in recent years therefore I feel it in the best interest of myself and my club Blackburn Rovers that I concentrate solely on my club football. I wish the team every success."

I can understand his frustration but he can\'t really demand being the number 1 considering his track record with England.
