England manager Fabio Capello admits he has overlooked controversial Newcastle midfielder Joey Barton because he considers him too risky. England face Holland in a friendly on Wednesday and Capello said: “He’s a good but dangerous player because you could end up 10 v 11. He might get sent off.” The Italian added he would still consider picking West Ham’s Scott Parker despite their relegation.
