'If It's Football, It's Vital'
Same again or same old same old?
Roy Hodgson will this week name his squad for the world cup qualifying double-header with Moldova and Ukraine.
Given the timing of the friendly with Italy back along it was little surprise that a number of 'the big guns' were left out in favour of the 'youngsters', but I wonder what Hodgson will do after a good few impressed in that win?
I am pretty sure that a few 'senior' players will return, although I do hope that not too many of them do as it really is time to start looking to the future now with us needing to build towards this.
Yep, you need some experience mixed into the squad but it really is time to start looking away from some of the older guard from the 'golden generation' that never was really, and hopefully Hodgson will do this.
In an ideal world you have a mixture of both I guess!
Although I do not expect to be greeted with too many surprises when this squad is named mind, hopefully I can be pleasantly surprised though...

getting the mix with older and more experienced players remains vital. Gerrard Cole and perhaps Lampard remain very good players, even if their role isnt as significant on the pitch, their experience off it is essential until some of the junior players have fully been tested
