Personally I think Stokes should be given more of a chance as a pure striker.

He impressed me against Germany and Kazakhstan sufficiently enough to be given another chance.

Madden too impressed me against Wales.

I wouldn't necessarily hold what happened to him at Yeovil in the Championship against him.

Both can play on the wing too and both have shown different sides to their game over the last couple seasons.

Sheridan and Mason too. I would give all four of them a chance in the WC Qualifiers what with four strikers in their mid-thirties and McGoldrick being cack.

Just to balance it a little bit, not saying you're wrong, but McGoldrick was very impressive against USA.

I'd not bring Murphy - his audition so far tonight is to form.

Westwood constant smiling said a lot to me.

What do you think it says? That he doesn't care or he was already assured he'd be in the squad?

Pretty lame performance and a bit disillusioning. Disappointing that Arter may miss out due to injury as well.

Neither.that he knows he isn't in the squad and saving face by looking happy and unperturbed.

Pleased Westwood has made the squad at least. When I saw Forde coming on tonight, my heart sank.

Arter doesn't make it. Nor Gibson.
