Marcus Rashford gets the nod as Townsend, Drinkwater and Delph miss out

Marcus Rashford was the stand-out name as England manager Roy Hodgson selected a young, bold and attacking squad for Euro 2016.

Hodgson finalised his 23-man squad for this summer’s tilt at glory yesterday, with Andros Townsend and Danny Drinkwater joining the injured Fabian Delph in being cut from the enlarged provisional party.

Having initially intended to reveal his final selection on May 12, the England manager instead named a 26-strong group after the final round of Premier League matches in order to assess the fitness of some key players.
