England coach Fabio Capello says he won't decide whether to stick with Robert Green until he has spoken with the West Ham United goalkeeper.

After his USA howler, Capello must decide whether to hand Green a second chance, or drag him out of his side and complete the most fundamental U-turn by picking David James or Joe Hart instead to face Algeria in Cape Town on Friday.

"Goalkeepers make mistakes. This is part of football," said Capello. "You have to accept that, just the same as you do with a referee or a striker.

"I decided on Green because he played very well in the last game against Platinum Stars and also against Mexico at Wembley, and in the second half on Saturday night he played very well and made a really important save. But a mistake remains a mistake.

"Now I have to speak with him, then I will decide what to do."
