The big names who I feel may have deserved inclusion are: Noble, Antonio, Defoe.
Personally I'd have dropped Wilshere for Defoe and dropped Rooney into midfield. No idea why Hendolad is anyhere near the national side. Cahill is a generally poor slow centre half and Jags is a million miles the player. Milner I generally despise but he's had a good run of form in the Europa league. Baines on form is the best left back in the league but I don't think he's suited for the national side for some reason.
Edit:
It'd also be funny to see Carrol come on and dominate some 'world class' defenders who've never faced a donkey before.

Just shows we don't really have a good squad
Defence and midfield is crapz at least we have a strike force. Vardy and Kane should start so 442 should be the formation at least
So who our wingers?

So who should start the first game and in what formation?

I'd go:
Hart
Walker
Stones
Smalling
Rose
Dier
Barkley
Alli
Rooney
Vardy
Kane
Roy won't do this though because....well I don't actually know why.
Jags..class

I think out of the 26 Rashford, Drinkwater and Lallana wont go, unless there is an injury.
Personally I don't think Wilshere should go, but Roy loves him. Also I would take Drinkwater over Henderson, but that's just me

There's no way Delph is going in the 23. No way.
Hart, Bertrand, Cahill, Smalling, Clyne, Dier, Drinkwater, Alli, Vardy, Sturridge, Kane.
Like that team although I'd probably switch out Clyne for Walker as always though the latter was pretty braindead although Clyne himself hasn't really done well for England.
@Jags..class tbh not sure why Townsend even makes the provisional squad, like @Mikey_Fitzgerald I would have had Lennon although tbf Townsend has had better games in an England shirt.

Jags should be there as experience cover.

Clyne or Wlaker really. Doesn't make much of a difference really.
I've gone no winger types on purpose. Just think there are any good ones. Sterling has lost it. Don't need them.
But here's the team I fear he will play first game:
Hart
Walker
Cahill
Smalling
Rose
Henderson
Wilshire
Alli
Sterling
Rooney
Kane
Which is horrific.

Roy seems to like him....... tends to stay loyal to his boys, where he can
Sturridge over Rooney - Roy would never do it even if agree that Wayne been generally poor this season.
What formation - a 433 with Dier dropping deeper of the midfield three?
