Gary Lineker critical of 'utterly pointless' line-up on FA chairman Greg Dyke's commission into reviving England Lineker agreed with a response from The Daily Telegraph's Paul Hayward that the commission was made up of bureaucrats. Hayward wrote: "Hoped it was going to be a national football study, not bureaucrats reviewing the bureaucracy." Lineker added: "Exactly!" And after former Manchester City favourite Francis Lee replied to say the process "looks like a complete waste of time," Lineker described it as "a real missed opportunity." It is not the first time Lineker has taken issue with progress at the heart of the English game, with the man who scored 48 goals for England being critical of the performance of the national team in last month's goalless draw against Ukraine. In a series of Tweets, Lineker condemned England's inability to retain possession, at one point describing the team's display as "awful," although he did delete that observation. England manager Roy Hodgson said it was not a fair criticism, although he and Lineker have since appeared together on Match of the Day, indicating they have resolved their differences. Former England defender Sol Campbell has questioned the make-up of the FA commission, believing it should be more ethnically diverse. "I wouldn't mind if they had some black players in there, black players who have actually done something for club and country," Campbell told BBC Sport. An early issue that commission members have been addressing is that of players born overseas to non-British parents becoming eligible to represent England. Dyke would be prepared to entertain the idea of Manchester United's Belgium-born teenager Adnan Januzaj and other foreign-born players representing England if the rules allow it. However, Mills, who played at the 2002 World Cup finals under Sven-Goran Eriksson, feels that would just be a "quick fix to a long-term problem." I don't agree with that. I don't think he (Januzaj) should be able to play for England," said Mills, who won 19 England caps and had successful spells in the top flight with Leeds and Manchester City. I think it is a quick fix to a long-term problem. If you start to do that, you actually detract from encouraging English clubs to go and find young English players. What academies will do is bring in foreign players at the age of 13, 14 that have got potential and then by the time they are 18 they can play for England. Mills' theory appears to be contradicted by Fifa rules that stipulate to become eligible, a player wishing to change nationality must have "lived continuously for at least five years after reaching the age of 18 on the territory of the relevant association." Mills, 36, added on talkSPORT: "If you carry on going through where we are, in another 10 or 15 years England will struggle to qualify [for major tournaments] because there won't be enough players." Hoddle has suggested a player quota system should be employed in the Premier League and called for all concerned to be "ruthless" in the quest to improve chances of success on the international stage. It is an idea which has received the backing of PFA chief executive Gordon Taylor. Premier League regulations permit no more than 17 overseas players in a squad of 25 - with the exception of under-21 players of any nationality, for whom no limits apply. Taylor feels the rules have not helped protect the home-grown players as they were intended. Taylor told ESPN: "I would like to see a rule introduced where three or four players in a starting line-up for each club need to have come through a youth development system in whichever country they are playing in, regardless of nationality. We need to keep the aspiration alive for youngsters that they can reach the top of the game. This is not an anti-foreigner proposal in any way, just a bid to encourage the development of homegrown talent.
