Everton Icon Reid Rates Henderson Ahead Of Arsenal’s Wilshere For England’s Holding Role

It has been reported that Everton legend Peter Reid believes Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson should be given England’s holding role ahead of Arsenal’s Jack Wilshere.

It is said that Reid questions Wilshere’s defensive game.
He admitted: “I am not sure about Wilshere in the holding midfield role.

“We have good forward players like Ross Barkley and Adam Lallana to come back but at the other end, when Phil Jones lost the ball at 0-0, if we were against top quality opposition, we would have been 1-0 down.
“That extra defensive shield is my one area of concern but we have time to improve on that. I think Henderson could go in there, he has great leg and could do a job.
