Former England coach Glenn Hoddle feels Hull City midfielder Tom Huddlestone can be a key player for Roy Hodgson.

Hoddle wrote in the Mail on Sunday: "He is not currently in favour. He has just four caps and has been used only once by Roy, as a substitute in a friendly against Sweden.

"As a sitting player, there are few Englishmen who can match Huddlestone. He does that job of screening the back four and he has a range of passing that few can match."
