Being quite serious here, there's no reason why England realise serious success simply off the basis of a stronger defensive performance as a team, combined with a clever use of team leaders. Uruguay for instance have a fantastic attack and a solid defence, however their central midfield is probably the most ordinary title-winning list of the past decade. Gargano is a very useful player, however Perez and Britos are nothing more than thugs.

England are missing a classy presence such as Hargreaves, however there's no reason why they couldn't achieve a similar efficiency with their current resources, without the need to try and suddenly achieve an idea resembling tiki-taka.

I don't see it happening though, in all honesty.

Hart
Kelly-Smalling-Jones-Robinson
Cleverley-Lansbury/McEacheran-Wilshere
Sturridge-Carroll-Sterling.

More then a good line-up.

Plus I feel Capello has eased his approach and improved upon his man-management of the English players as his tactics are undeniable.

Take Sterling out for Rooney and that's a great line up.

Then again, all of England's team had potential. Most of the squads havn't worked out with poor coaches/tactics.

Agree with neville here,its time to move on from that crap traditional power football.These power football will not help youth development,instead of blaming it on managers and crap penalty excuses they should start playing ball on the feet instead of kick and run footall.
