Fabio needs more young stars to pick warns Jose

Jose Mourinho has warned England manager Fabio Capello that he will never be able to produce a world-class national team, because the youth system in this country is working against him.

The former Chelsea manager is alarmed that young players in the Premier League are denied the opportunity to make the break through into the elite level and believes this will hold Capello back.

He said: "England's biggest problem is that it is not producing so many good young players for the manager to choose from. The country has to establish a better development programme if it wants to qualify for, and win, major tournaments.

"This is not just a problem for the Football Association, it should be a problem for the manager of the national side, too."

As England's top teams again paid massive amounts of money for foreign talent - a combined £60million on Bulgarian Dimitar Berbatov and Brazilian Robinho - the Inter Milan boss said he hoped more attention would be paid to giving youth its chance to shine.

"It used to amaze me that the younger age groups at Chelsea were only able to play the same age teams of Liverpool or Manchester United maybe only once a year. The way the competition calendar is set up in England is wrong. The best young players in the country must play the best opposition every week.
