I hope Wilshere isn't near the starting eleven. He's good, but nowhere near the hype he's given.

 

I'd have him over Henderson.

I enjoyed watching an England game for once.

 

I'd like to think Hodgson will take some of last nights attacking intent into the competition.

 

I like this England set up. First time in ages I've actually thought that.

 

Great to see some attacking intent and movement from the younger players last night.

I would in some matches, I just wonder if some games are so competitive and physical that we need someone with more running. Especially when Gerrard plays. [/Pards]

"Someone with more running" what does that even mean? Wilshere has a fantastic work ethic.

Stamina, endurance, athleticism. Wilshere is pretty quick and works hard but I have doubts over his "engine".

 

I do prefer him to Henderson but I worry about the legs of a Gerrard / Wilshere midfield duo.

Proper buzzing about Barkley like. Potential to be an incredible player.

 

Hodgson wasn't too impressed

 

Think he's deliberately playing down the media and fan hype tbh, which is fair enough, really.

 

Too often we hype our players up just before a tournament and for whatever reason, they fail to deliver. Might also spur Barkley on in training knowing that he's still not guaranteed a start.

I love Barkley. He's always going to make something happen. He might not always get it right with the final decisions, but he will not just be out there going through the motions. Ultimately he'll create chances for the team. He was fantastic for that second goal yesterday, absolutely brilliant play.

If Barkley starts he's going to have to do a lot of defensive work due to having Gerrard as the deepest midfielder.

 

He's going to need legs around him like he does for Liverpool, that's my major concern right now there's too big a gap between the deepest midfielder and the rest of the midfield.

Yeah, alright. Calm down Pards.

This is why I'd still be tempted to go with a diamond, which would give the added bonus of having someone doing a job on Pirlo and putting Rooney in his best position.

Chamberlain ruled out for between 10 days and 3 weeks.

 

Why. Just when I started to appreciate and actually root a bit for England because of Ox and Barkley, one of them gets injured.

Potentially he will only miss the Italy game which I doubt he would have started in anyway.

Are they still taking him?

 

They haven't said yet but with Cleverley as a potential replacement if like to think so!

This might be rendered null and void if Prandelli sticks with the 4-1-4-1 he used yesterday, mind, which he seemed to suggest he might :laugh:
