4-4-2 apparently according to sky. It doesn't look like the players for a 442 to me.
Oxlade-Chamberlain and Sterling as wingers?

Wembley looks as empty as it used to be in the 80s for friendlies. And home internationals against Wales and N Ireland.

Looks like the Liverpool-type 4-4-2, where the strikers double as the wide players and all the midfielders are central. Suits the players that, I think.

He did ok. You have to consider the enormous drag factor of playing for Hodgson.

Did anyone notice what appeared to be Sterling having a moan at Delph at full time? Delph looked a bit dejected.

No.

To be honest watching him get hid 20 mins nobody really looked up to pass to him. I'd have felt a bit dejected as well if you're in good positions to receive the ball and making your debut.

Did anyone else think Sterling and Sturridge are determined to only pass to each other?

I did. I think it was because Delph was confused by the formation and wandered out of position into where Sterling was. Sterling has a point.

I blame Hodgson :)

Sturridge doesn't look to pass to anyone, it happens by mistake sometimes but he's the greediest player I've ever seen.

easy tactics against 'The Mighty Reds YNWA' then double mark sturridge and sterling then push everyone else up. They only pass to each other anyway
