Hodgson can change squad if Barry will be injured
Hodgson said that if the tests that Gareth Barry will undergo today, results that he can't play in the Euro Championships, he is prepared to change the squad. He was injured in the match against Norway last Saturday, which England won 1-0. Should Barry miss out, Jordan Henderson of Liverpool is expected to be called-up instead. However Hodgson said that he can call-up instead Jagielka, as the squad already has a lot of midfielders. The words he said were, "I am prepared to reconfigure. I am not necessarily looking to replace man-for-man in the midfield area because we have a lot of players in that area". Hodgson continued to say that there are only days left for preparations, and so he can't take any risks. There are also injury problems of Danny Wellbeck and Glen Johnson.
