Both Carroll & Wellbeck scoring tonight gives Hodgson a difficult & welcome problem....both played well tonight & scored !!! Young had a poor game so naturally he's under the microscope !!!
But Young played out on the wing tonight so by bringing back Rooney (which given his "talisman" status is a given ) and the fact that Walcott had a good game when he came on....suddenly Hodgson has a dilemma !!!
One things for sure....unlike Capello, Hodgson doesn't seem afraid to tinker with formations and try to adapt to situations. His answer to this particular selection problem will be intriguing to say the least.
However, erring on the side of caution....I'd still say we're dropping to deep at times, we don't press the ball enough and we're still a bit too hesitant and slow going forward, although the third goal was a damn good team goal, quite incisive which had around eleven passes and a sublime finish to boot by Wellbeck !!!
Personally speaking, I think the fact that Rooney & Wellbeck playing together at United will probably have a great bearing on Hodgson's next selection. Somehow, I think Carroll might end up back on the bench for the Ukraine game.
