Sven should still consider him for the squad even in the championship.

Congrats :D
Looks like we'll have to have Crouch, Smith, Heskey or Vassell then I guess. I would have liked it to be Johnson, and was hoping he'd be given more of a chance on an international level but it looks as if that won't happen in the near future.
As regards to the Championship not being a big enough test... you're joking right?
Granted the players aren't as skilled by the division is very long and tough.
Leeds United have 4 England U21 internationals in their team, an australian international, Angolian, Icelandic, Irish and American international.
What's wrong with a English international being in the championship?

Owen doesn't play in the Premiership, hove.

He's proven himself as a top rate goalscorer in both the Championship and the Premiership. He's more than capable of playing with a top half Premiership club.

...nothing...but to be picked for the England squad you've got far more chance of proving your worth if you're playing at the highest level. Playing in the Premiership and the Championship is very different - and you might argue that to compete at International level its better to be playing around other players of such standard. Lets face it, when's the last time Angolia or Iceland did anything of note?
He scored what, 10, 12 goals in open play? That's really not anything special...Get over him, he's in the Championship where he belongs imo.
