<\/a><\/p>\nEngland Fabio Capello has been accused of double standards over snatching Welbeck from Ghana<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
England Fabio Capello has been accused of double standards by denying Ghana the chance of capping Manchester United striker Danny Welbeck yet he accuses Germany of \u201ctheft of talent\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\nThe Italian questioned Germany\u2019s use of players with Turkish origin at the 2010 World Cup and called upon football\u2019s rulers to end the stealing of talent that goes on between national teams.<\/p>\n
England\u2019s 4-1 defeat to the Germans in Bloemfontein remains a major stain on his otherwise impressive managerial CV.<\/p>\n
The Three Lions were completely undone by a squad that contained 11 players who had an opportunity to represent another country, including star man Mesut Ozil, plus Miroslav Klose and Lukas Podolski, who both scored in the rout and this still hurts Capello.<\/p>\n
\u201cRicher clubs are talent-scouting and stealing players by bidding higher and not thinking about the consequences for those countries,\u201d Capello said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese players are acquiring new passports. Germany had five of Turkish origin who opted to represent them and we all know what happened.<\/p>\n
\u201cProblems need to be addressed. Decisions need to be made. Players can be bought, especially when they come from poorer backgrounds, where their families need the financial resources.\u201d<\/p>\n
While accusing Germany of stealing talent from their native countries he sneeringly ignored the fact that he denied Ghana the chance of capping Manchester United striker Welbeck.<\/p>\n
Welbeck, whose parents are from Ghana, were in talks with the Ghana FA over the youngster playing for the Black Stars but Capello quickly capped the player to deny the West African country.<\/p>\n
He denied the accusation of double standards given he has capped Manchester United striker Danny Welbeck, much to the frustration of Ghana, who were hopeful of persuading the 21-year-old Mancunian to represent the country of his parents\u2019 origin.<\/p>\n
\u201cBefore the selection I called his (Welbeck\u2019s) father and asked if I could select the boy,\u201d\u00a0Capello said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe father took time before agreeing to the selection. It was a personal decision, I spoke to the family and they were fine with their son playing for England.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe was born and brought up in England.\u201d<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
