England produced an indifferent display on Sunday against Japan despite winning 2-1, it was the last chance for any of the fringe players to stake their claims for a place on the plane. It was crucial for those fringe players looking to get on the plane with both Shaun Wright-Phillips and Joe Cole putting in good performances to get themselves up the pecking order.
