BBC Sport - Jack Wilshere & Andy Carroll get England U21s call

TheFA.com - England Under-21s provisional squad for Denmark 2011 has been announced

Under-21 squad picked, Wilshire & Carroll in & its very strong looking. Could win the whole thing as i said before. Only possible candidate missing is Martin Kelly, so im guessing he is ruled out of Liverpool's season ATM

Best XI presuming Wilshire & Carroll do go:

------------------------------Loach/Fielding----------------------------------

Walker--------------------Richards-----------Smalling-------------------Gibbs

Rodwell--------------------Jones-----------Wilshire------------------Sturridge

---------------------------Welbeck------------Carroll-------------------------

I'd go with:

Loach
Richards Smalling Jones Gibbs
Muamba
Rodwell Wilshere
Welbeck---Carroll---Sturridge​

Loach

Muamba
Rodwell Wilshere

I'd go with:

Loach
Richards Smalling Jones Gibbs
Muamba
Rodwell Wilshere
Welbeck---Carroll---Sturridge​

Oh yes looks far better than mine ha. Only slight worry i guess is Welbeck playing wide in front 3, but if it could work, this would be a very strong set-up indeed.

TheFA.com - Liverpool midfielder Jay Spearing called into the England Under-21s provisional squad for Denmark 2011

I was a bit surprised when he didn't make the original 40, but glad he is in now.

Should Wilshire & Carroll go to the under-21 cup?

Whats everyone's position on Wilshire & Carroll going to the Under-21 Cup. I personally have had a change of heart & think they both should stay home.

This article the case the best i've seen on all the football sites i've recently: Why Wilshere and Carroll should avoid Under-21 burn-out ? 5 Added Minutes

They under-21 squad can still be strong without them with such a XI:


--------------------------------------Loach-------------------------------------------

Richards------------------Smalling-------------Jones------------------------Gibbs

-------------------Rodwell---------Muamba-------------Spearing-----------------

Albrington-------------------------Welbeck----------------------------Sturridge


A chance for other young stars to shine. Maybe McEachran could star up & show Chelsea that he has what i takes to become their version of Wilshire. Along with Wickham, he also can show his hype as a young striker to the world & thus take the premiership by storm next season.

 

[Bevab]

It would give others a chance to shine but if they do play, the English U-21 team will certainly win.

Basically the best squad he could have picked. I hope Dawson is injured however, since i would find it quite odd that if he has been left out instead of Cahill or Jaigelka.

A bit surprised Spearing & McEachran didn't make it. But strong squad anyway.
