England Worried After Walcott and Sturridge Sit Out Training Session: The Daily EPL

When it was reported that John Terry would miss England’s match against Ukraine yesterday, he was the eleventh player to be absent from England’s squad. And now Theo Walcott and Daniel Sturridge have both complained that they felt unwell last night, and had to miss today’s training session. Whether or not they’ll be fit for tomorrow’s match against Ukraine, we’ll have to wait and see. But the sooner this international break is over, the better. These injury worries are becoming tedious.
