  Saido Berahino gets his first call-up and Stewart Downing's impressive West Ham form sees him return after a long absence.
  
  A fully fit Luke Shaw comes in from the cold (under-21s) and Southampton's Nathaniel Clyne keeps his place. Hodgson says Glen Johnson can do one for now (or words to that effect). Excellent news.
  
  No Sturridge on account of him still not being fit but Theo Walcott is included after a long lay-off.
  
  And somehow, Andros Townsend gets the nod. Again.
  
  The squad in full:
  
  Fraser Forster, Ben Foster, Joe Hart
  
  Leighton Baines, Gary Cahill, Calum Chambers, Nathaniel Clyne, Kieran Gibbs, Phil Jagielka, Luke Shaw, Chris Smalling
  
  Ross Barkley, Michael Carrick, Stewart Downing, Jordan Henderson, Adam Lallana, James Milner, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Raheem Sterling, Andros Townsend, Jack Wilshere, Theo Walcott
  
  Rickie Lambert, Wayne Rooney, Daniel Welbeck, Saido Berahino
  
  What you reckon? On current form i'd have picked Harry Kane over Lambert, and i'd like to think Ryan Bertrand at least ran Luke Shaw close. Nice to see Carrick back though.

  Carrick should tell Woy to get fucked.

  Haha. Credit to him for not retiring long ago. Many would rather jet off to Dubai than sit on the bench for their country.

  It is/was a similar situation to Scholes. Clearly deserves a chance/is better than current options but the manager wants to stick with the tried and tested in Gerrard/Lampard forcing Scholes to either be benched or played out of position. Scholes saw the light and retired early, i'm amazed Carrick hasn't. Then again, Gerrard/Lampard are out of it now so surely he'll finally be given the shot he deserves?

  Townsend's out injured!
  
  
  
  Still pissed Gibbs got in ahead of Bertrand though.

  Don't understand how Walcott gets picked after only playing 10 minutes of football. As for Downing well less said the better.

  i for once enjoyed our performance last night,even though i was lucky i never watched 1st half,our players ( GOONERS ) made a good contribution for once,i thought the whole team had a bit of determination for once even though going a goal down,ok they were not germany but they were a good test,wayne seems to be settling in to his captaincy and getting the respect from his team mates,all and all a good 3points they all count,Tuesday will provide us with a different match all together,just hope they go up there with heads held high and dont bottle it cos its just a friendly which this match can NEVER be called,more important hope they all come back NOT injured

  Hope woy gives the likes of berahino a decent run out tonight not just 20 mins towards the end.
  No point picking established names lets use this as a chance to have a look at 1 or 2
