Player Valuation: £10m
Apparently John Stones, Calum Chambers and Danny Rose are in a new look defence. Who would you have in it, and who do you think will be in it?

Goalkeepers; Hart, Forster, Ruddy
Defence; Chambers, Rose, Dier, Jones, Clyne, Jagielka, Baines
Defensive Midfield; Delph, Barry (Wilshere), Rodwell, Henderson
Attacking Midfield; Ward-Prowse, Milner, Sterling, Chamberlain, Berahino
Strikers; Rooney (c), Sturridge, Wickham

Nice and youthful, and probably the best we've got. Can't see Barry in there, probably go to someone like Wilshere.
 
Goalkeepers: Fraser Forster (Southampton), Ben Foster (West Bromwich Albion), Joe Hart (Manchester City)

Defenders: Leighton Baines (Everton), Gary Cahill (Chelsea), Calum Chambers (Arsenal), Phil Jagielka (Everton), Phil Jones (Manchester United), Danny Rose (Tottenham Hotspur), John Stones (Everton)

Midfielders: Jack Colback (Newcastle United), Fabian Delph (Aston Villa), Jordan Henderson (Liverpool), James Milner (Manchester City), Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (Arsenal) Raheem Sterling (Liverpool), Andros Townsend (Tottenham Hotspur), Jack Wilshere (Arsenal)

Forwards: Rickie Lambert (Liverpool), Wayne Rooney (Manchester United), Daniel Sturridge (Liverpool), Danny Welbeck (Manchester United)

think they are best leaving rodwell alone to try an get his fitness back on track with his club
 

That England midfield fills me with horror! Opposition teams must be bricking it!

(not many alternatives for Woy though is there?)
 
team would prob be -


----hart
chamberlain jags cahill baines
------henderson(prefer milner) wilshere
sterling rooney ox-chamb
--------sturridge
 
Again, not blooding in younger players 3 years + ago shows itself up.

Midfield is shocking.

Forward line is worse.
 
The thing is, we saw in the World Cup that teams with relatively unheralded players did well. I know it's hardly ever the case with England, but it is possible for teams to exceed the sum of their parts. I mean how many English players have we been able to say are better for their country than they are for their club? I can't think of many, yet there are numerous examples from other nations.
 

That midgield is missing the class of Barkley. Wilshere should play over Henderson who is a carthorse at international level. There really is a lack of good english holding midfielders. If Ledson or Lundstram could only step up there is a gaping hole in the squad for someone.
