The Everton v Spurs match provided a bit of an ominous portent this weekend. Tim Howard, the Everton goalkeeper saved a penalty from Defoe. There's every possibility that Defoe will be facing Howard again in S Africa next year when England play the USA in their opening game, so I hope he gets some penalty shooting practice in before then! Shame Tim Howard can't become a naturalised Brit 'cos we could do with a goalie of his standard - he's streets ahead of the bunch of second-rate England keepers that Capello has to choose from.
