Danny Welbeck and Wayne Rooney to start behind Daniel Sturridge for England against Italy tonight.
 
England team to face Italy - Hart, Johnson, Jagielka, Cahill, Baines, Gerrard, Henderson, Welbeck, Sterling, Rooney,
Sturridge.
 
I'd have gone for Lallana ahead of Welbeck and Wilshere ahead of Henderson but that's not too bad.

As good as side as we've got.
 
England LINE-UP: Hart (GK), Johnson, Cahill, Jagielka, Baines, Gerrard (c), Henderson, Rooney, Sterling, Welbeck, Sturridge.
 
Italy LINE-UP: Sirigu, Chiellini, Darmian, Candreva, Marchisio, Balotelli, Barzagli, De Rossi, Paletta, Pirlo (c), Verratti
