England coach Fabio Capello has denied Michael Owen an international recall after leaving the Manchester United striker out of his squad for Wednesday's friendly against Holland.
Owen has not played for his country since the friendly defeat in France nearly 18 months ago, but his move to United was expected to increase his chances of featuring in Capello's team.
But Capello has again opted to snub Owen, who is England's fourth highest all-time goalscorer, for the trip to Amsterdam.
The other surprise absentee is Portsmouth keeper David James.
