Not FFL. 
Hargreaves axed as England stick with
Lampard
Steve McClaren looks set to drop 'indispensable' Owen Hargreaves
for tonight's Euro 2008 qualifier with Andorra as he desperately
tries to prove his assertion that Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard
are compatible in central midfield.

With Middlesbrough winger Stuart Downing and Tottenham Hotspur's
Aaron Lennon set to start on the flanks Hargreaves, the man
McClaren described as 'the glue that holds the side together' only
six weeks ago, will be the fall guy.
The Bayern Munich enforcer was voted the England fans' player of
the year in the aftermath of the 2006 World Cup and McClaren
identified Hargreaves' absence as one of the reasons his team
dropped five points against Macedonia and Croatia back in
October.
It now appears that a morale boosting performance from his
misfiring midfield duo against one of international football's
minnows is of utmost importance.
Lampard is nursing a fractured wrist but seems willing to play
through the pain rather than lose his place during a period when
there are deafening calls for the Chelsea midfielder to be axed
from England's starting eleven.
Despite Wayne Rooney's alleged dressing room bust up with McClaren
after the disappointing 0-0 draw with Israel in Tel Aviv on
Saturday the Manchester United striker will again start alongside
Andrew Johnson as he seeks his first competitive goal for England
since Euro 2004.
In defence Ashley Cole is back from suspension at left back,
displacing Jamie Carragher, with Micah Richards earning his fourth
cap on the right in place of Phil Neville. Centre-backs Rio
Ferdinand and John Terry retain their places.
Yay, we're gonna see FFL score a few goals and then declare
himself to be indespensible, important to the team and has turned
the corner.
