Stuart Pearce's Predicted Starting Eleven for Sam Allardyce's First England Match Raises Eyebrows

Published on: 24 July 2016

Former England defender Stuart Pearce has raised a few eyebrows with his predicted starting eleven for Sam Allardyce's first game as manager of England.


Pearce is a former under-21 manager for England and took charge of the first-team squad briefly on an interim basis, but going by this line-up, England fans are certain to beglad that he didn't get the job full time.

That's right, Stuart Pearce's England squad for their next game includes a retired John Terry, an injured Danny Welbeck and Wayne Rooney out of position, despite that being one of the main criticisms of Roy Hodgson's side during the European Championships.


It's safe to say that this line-up didn't get the desired response from some of the England faithful.

@SkySportsNewsHQ @England This is why I'm glad Stuart Pearce didn't get the manager's job.

"Big Sam" will take charge of his first game in September when his side will play Croatia.
