LONDON (Reuters) - The world-class foreign talent in the Premier League could help English players improve, even though many of them are likely to be starting matches from the substitutes' bench, England manager Roy Hodgson said on Tuesday.
"Some of our players will be selected from the bench at club level, which would have been unthinkable five or 10 years ago," Hodgson told reporters before Wednesday night's friendly with Norway at Wembley Stadium.
