New England coach Roy Hodgson will finally start working with the bulk of the England squad for the first time ahead of Euro 2012 when they report to their Manchester base on Wednesday afternoon. It leaves the former West Bromwich Albion boss just 19 days and two friendly internationals against Norway and Belgium to hone his plans before the Euro 2012 opener with France on June 11.
The players will undergo their first training sessions with Hodgson tomorrow and Thursday before flying out to Oslo on Friday for the game with Norway the following day.
