There are 4 English players who featured in almost every game for champions Leicester this season. Only 2 of them will make the squad. 0 of them will start any games.

Jack Wilshere has played 6 minutes of football this season iirc. That sounds like an exaggeration, but it really isn't. Hodgson is on paper stating that Drinkwater and Dier are still in his shadow.

Sterling will be preferred over Albrighton because he plays for a top, top team like City.

Lallana scored a goal against Villarreal yesterday which has 100% consolidated his place in the starting line-up.

As for Rooney, well, "Wooney is Wooney". Another actual tautologist Hodgson quote.

Milner should definitelly be in the starting line up. Clyne and Walker are about as equally good as two players can get. Lallana should absolutely be in contention for a starting position. Henderson could also play, if he seems fit. Considering the form Vardy and Kane is in, they should start, but Sturridge should at least be considered as a serious option.

Hodgson.

I don't know how he managed to escape the last world cup unscathed, probably because he's close friends with the "big England journos" like Henry Winter.

He should never have been manager in the first place, and no matter how many times he BTFO of San Marino in qualifiers, he'll still be tactically outclassed on the big stage against the big teams

I'm not sure, but in qualifying we played really defensively and did ok (same with Euros). Then before the WC Greg Dyke started going 'if England are going to win we need to play attacking football' etc - and Woy's tactics changed. I think the orders came from above him to change the style of football, which turned out to be a disaster. Especially as Woy has only really ever been successful by making teams hard to beat. So I think the FA couldn't sack him because they were the ones who told him to play differently.

That's our problem. Every single qualifying tournament we get absolute nobodies. Countries that don't even know what football is. And of course we walk over them and top the group with ease.

How about winning a tournament needs some amount of luck, even if you're the best team participating? If in one match the ref makes 2 or 3 bad decisions, you're out and you can't do shit against it. Stop being delusional hyping idiots with unrealistic expectations and don't pressure your team into choking when it counts.

If we win the euro's there's no chance of him getting the sack.

Our managers have always been a problem in that they never stand up to the FA or the Media. Any other country would have the balls to drop the big names (hell look at France dropping Benz and Ribbery) but in our case the FA will force Hodgson to start Rooney just for more shirt sales. Until we get a Manager who can make the hard decisions and go against upper management the more we'll fail and fail.

There is no risk with dropping Rooney at this stage. He's proven consistently that he cannot perform in international tournaments. He's 30, had a season dogged by injury, and plays for a Manchester United side that is a shadow of its former self.

It's time to move on for sure.

you made the best starting eleven Italy could do in these days. very good my swede friend, are you Lagerback?
I explain to you why:
Jorginho is a world class player. saw him playing live vs Palermo, he didn't lose a ball, e have good technique and he cover the whole midfield. The only way he could'nt be a starter were if there was Verratti and Marchisio, but this is not the case.
Chiellini left back is actually good because Florenzi as a right back can morph into a winger when attacking; in this case defense would be the 3 of Juve which is not bad.
Bonaventura is actually really good. Parolo is not bad but this year played like shit. Marchisio and Verratti are world class player and their absence will be devastating.
the attack is a big question mark: we have three excellent wingers (Candreva Insigne ElSharaawy) maybe a fourth (Bernardeschi) or two number10s (Giovinco or Franco GOAT Vazquez). Hte problem are the centreforward: Zaza and Pellè are not bad but they are not champions.
I think the best italian striker right now is Torino's Andrea Belotti. He is in excellent physical shape and he would be the new Totò Schillaci if only Conte wasn't a shitter and won't call him
