F365 view of Henderson:
"Jordan Henderson was running there just for the sake of it," said Martin Keown at one point in the first half. Whenever Henderson cannot work out how he can influence a game - which has happened some 22 times for England - he simply runs. It's ridiculous that he is apparently guaranteed an England place without ever actually playing well for England. Looked far better at right-back when given a defined role and it was his drive forward that led to England's second. We're not saying he is England's future full-back but against inferior opposition, it really isn't such a daft idea.

that would be my preference.
And mine. He's dreadful.
Just goes to show how slim the pickings are for England I guess
It's not like 98 when they had great options all over the park and a genuinely top strike force in Shearer and Sheringham
*sigh* I miss those days
I honestly truly believed England would win France 98. Like, I totally thought it could happen at the time.

Roy Hodgson has indicated he will continue with Phil Jones as England’s right-back and made it clear to Nathaniel Clyne that he has no right “on the basis of a good season” to think he should take over from the Manchester United defender.
Clyne was restricted to the role of a late substitute in England’s 3-2 win against Slovenia and was overlooked when Hodgson withdrew Jones, who was suffering from a minor ankle injury, at half-time. Jordan Henderson was switched from central midfield into defence and at the end of the game Clyne went straight down the tunnel. “I suppose he was disappointed,” Hodgson said.
Jones was partly to blame for Slovenia’s first goal and has had an erratic season at Old Trafford but Hodgson gave him his backing after it was put to the England manager that Clyne had been the outstanding right-back in the Premier League last season with Southampton.
“Maybe,” Hodgson said, “but Jones is a top-quality player. We have great faith in him and we are very happy with him. We think Nathaniel Clyne is a very good player but I would be disappointed if anyone thought that on the basis of a good season with their clubs they can walk in and demand a place.
“If I were to play him and leave out Phil Jones there would have been a lot of questions about ‘Don’t you rate Phil Jones?’ and ‘Don’t you think he’s a man of the future?’ I didn’t notice Clyne walk off and you would have to ask him."
No there wouldn't because Phil Jones is a bloody CB Roy.

True from 96 - 04 we actually had quite a strong squad looking back. Not good enough to win tournaments (except for 96) but could've got further than we did if certain things had gone our way
