Theo Walcott to replace James Milner for Ukraine clash?

By , Staff Reporter
Theo Walcott is reportedly expected to replace James Milner in tonight's Euro 2012 Group D clash between England and Ukraine, despite a hamstring problem.

Arsenal winger Theo Walcott is expected to be awarded a starting spot in England's XI for their final Group D clash against Ukraine this evening.

The 23-year-old was initially thought to be a doubt for the game due to a hamstring injury but manager Roy Hodgson confirmed yesterday that the winger is available for selection.

It is thought that Walcott will replace James Milner in the lineup following the former Southampton star's wonder strike in the Three Lions' 3-2 win over Sweden on Friday, according to reports.

Meanwhile, it has been suggested that Hodgson has decided to drop Andy Carroll over Danny Welbeck in order to introduce Wayne Rooney back into the side.
