Jack Wilshere sat out most of last Premier League’s season owing to his injury. So how he made it to the England Euro team is anybody’s guess. Hodgson played him in the group stages but to be fair to Wilshere he looked very uneasy with the ball and overall lacked match fitness and failed to make any impact. After seeing his performances the fans would have been hoping that Ross Barkley would get a look in but Hodgson seems to have a lot of trust in the Arsenal man.

Marcus Rashford was introduced as late as the 85th minute, he did make a couple of good runs down the flank and did look dangerous but to be fair to the fairy tale kid, five minutes isn’t enough time for him to script history. The 19-year-old should have been introduced earlier in the second half.
