Theo Walcott is coming back after his long injury absence. The new player on the list is 21-year old West Bromwich attacker Saido Berahino, who has scored seven times in ten Premier League matches.

The Liverpool attacker Daniel Sturridge is not on the list, as he still hasn’t recuperated from his injury. If Wayne Rooney plays against Slovenia, it will be his 100th appearance for the national team. "They have a number of players playing for the best European clubs. We consider them serious competitors," said Hodgson when revealing the names of players.
