England stars in the U21 squad? England vs Italy prediction?

Hello and welcome to another of my blogs regarding the England Football team.
With the biggest fixture since the World Cup looming it was announced that Harry Kane will start along side Rooney tonight. Carry on reading for more information about this and a prediction for tonight's game against Italy.

Can England stars play for the U21 squad?

This is the question currently being asked by the manager of the England under 21 team. It has been leaked that some of the Premier League teams are planning on banning their players from attending the Euro's for the under 21 team such as the

Everton midfielder Ross Barkley. I personally am a huge fan of Roberto Martinez but he released a statement saying that Barkley would be needing a 'proper break' over the summer. I'm sorry but to me that sounds just like he doesn't want Barkley to go when I think that anyone who is of the age and ability who is chosen to attend, should attend the game and not attempt to find a way out of it.

The legend, Gary Lineker agrees with this as he tweeted, '  If clubs try to pull their players out, it would be a national disgrace'. If they do it would be a real disappointment because with as solid performance against Germany and a few extra senior players this team would have a really good chance of going to the Czech Republic and winning.

Hodgeson believes that Kane who helped England qualify for these stages should not be part of the senior set up and should help guide the U21 to a hopeful victory. He ended up suggesting that Tottenham would ban him from doing that because of their commercial interests.

The last player that could play for them would be Sterling but the manager of the U21 side has admitted that "Realistically, Raheem has become a very important player for the senior team and for Liverpool," and Southgate said, "I'm not convinced another tournament in the summer would be right for him."  Lineker says he is "baffled" by the stance Premier League clubs have towards the international game and believes a successful national side would have a "massively positive impact" on English football's top flight.

Tonight's predictions

Tonight I am going to predict a 3-1 win to England as I saw the recent result of a hard fought draw of Italy's last game. Kane will score 1, Rooney 1 and Delph 1, if they all start. Good luck to England and I do expect a win from them. Kane should start this game as he wishes to go on in his England career.
