DM – Jack Wilshere
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is convinced this 22-year-old can play as a holding midfielder, but Wilshere certainly needs to be a bit more disciplined if he wants to establish the role as his own.
CM – Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain
Against European minnows San Marino we have opted for Oxlade-Chamberlain ahead of City’s James Milner as he adds a more exciting and pacey option in attack.
CM – Jordan Henderson
Since the retirement of his Liverpool teammate Steven Gerrard there is an opportunity for this midfield ace to emulate his club skipper and become the key man in the middle for his country.
CAM – Raheem Sterling
Against Switzerland in their last outing and for the Reds this talented 19-year-old has developed brilliantly at the top of a diamond midfield and we expect Hodgson to name the 19-year-old there once more.
