England manager Fabio Capello has demanded football's governing bodies end the "theft of talent" that occurs between national teams.
Capello has cited the number of Turkish born players in the Germany team that beat England 4-1 in last year's World Cup as an abuse of the current system.

England were outplayed by a squad that contained 11 players who were able represent another country, including star man Mesut Ozil, Miroslav Klose and Lukas Podolski.

"A line needs to be drawn," he said. "Germany had five (players) of Turkish origin who opted to represent them and we all know what happened.

Jack charlton was the best for this using no fewer than 12 players born in different countries.

While he's at it he could also complain about the theft of managerial talent from other countries.
