Former England international, Dion Dublin has gone on to claim that Peter Crouch deserves to be in the England squad, based on his performances this past season.
Dublin went on to state that Roy Hodgson is going to have a hard time picking his squad for the upcoming European competition, but feels that Crouch is a player who he should list in the squad.
The striker has not played for England since 2010, but according to Dublin and many other experts, he could add an extra dimension to the team this time around.
When talking about the forward and his potential importance to the national team, Dublin is quoted to have said: "My first choice striker would always be Wayne, but away from him it would always be http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Peter-Crouch-c29741 because people just do not know how to mark
him.”
"Crouchy is not the kind of person who would cry because he is not being picked, he would always put himself in the frame to be.”
"His record is better than anybody else's as a striker in terms of games to goals for England, so on that basis I think he should go."
Dublin then went on to admit that a number of other players had also been highly impressive this term and that Hodgson would have to really get his squad selection just right to pick the right team.
He continued: "Andy Carroll has raised his level in the last two or three games, Grant Holt is always going to be a handful, so is Bobby http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Zamora-c40983. There are a lot of good strikers. It will just be about picking the right ones who are in form.”
At the moment, the only striker who is confirmed to be in the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Rooney-c36736. The forward has had another brilliant season this time around and in doing so, he has ensured his spot in the team.
However, it is still unclear as to who the manager would pick to play alongside the striker, but with the squad list set to be revealed in the near future, it is just a short wait to find out just who will make the cut.
