Harry Redknapp refuses to name players who have avoided England duty after Steven Gerrard calls for QPR boss to name and shame stars

I get impression that Gerrard doesn't really believe Harry.

One of the biggest problems with internationals is that players don't play enough together. The German side have been playing together for years and have gelled right from U21 to full international, ditto most successful sides like Holland who may bicker and row but ultimately have a strong understanding. There's an FA clip with the likes of the Ox, Luke Shaw, Ross Barclay and Sturridge meeting as team mates properly for the first time a few months back ahead of WC. These guys should really should know each other well long before.
