England player ratings

England’s 2-1 win over Turkey on Sunday afternoon gave Roy Hodgson a chance to assess the form and fitness of his squad ahead of Euro 2016.

With most of Manchester United and Liverpool’s players not considered for the game, there was a chance for several fringe players to press their case for inclusion in the final 23-man squad.

But who looked good and who let themselves down? We asked former England caretaker manager Peter Taylor to rate each player out of 10…

Joe Hart – 7

I felt he made a mistake for Turkey’s goal, but then he pulled off a really, really good save at the end of the game. He didn’t have a great deal to do in between that so it’s quite hard to rate him, so I reckon a seven is about right.

Kyle Walker – 8

I thought both of the full-backs are defending better and are going forward well. On the ball I would say Kyle Walker is ahead of Nathaniel Clyne, but defensively the Liverpool player is probably ahead of him. You do get a bit more time on the ball in that position.

Danny Rose – 9

Danny Rose got the man of the match award from the sponsors, which I agreed with. I think he’s definitely going to be the starting left-back at the Euros. One-on-one defensively it doesn’t look like he’s going to get beaten.

Gary Cahill – 7

I felt both of the central defenders were steady and defended okay. I don’t want to suggest it was a better performance than it was by giving Gary Cahill 8/10 so I’m just going to give him seven. The defence is definitely still the weakness for England

John Stones – 7
