Think it's crazy that Hodgson has picked Stones over Jagielka. Clearly the media campaign for Stones has worked and Jagielka isn't a fashionable choice. He's a far better defender at the stage though and anyone that watches Everton play often knows that.

The fact that he's picked Wiltshere and Henderson over others too speaks volumes. Pandering to the press, NEA.
 
I'm more than a little surprised he hasn't been picked tbh

He's currently at a better level than Stones

This. Crazy decision. I would not have put Roy Hodgson down as someone selecting based on reputation, but he clearly has. Jags was capt for a qualifying game as well... only San Marion, but still, he's taking a big risk choosing Stones as one of only 3 specialist centre-backs above Jags. Suppose it might be useful in adding a few extra £££ to Stones' value you!
