FA chairman David Bernstein says England desperately need a bigger pool of quality players to pick from "The number of English players in the Premier League and the Football League is a really important matter,"" Bernstein said. We have this number of around 30 per cent and in Germany it is more than 50 per cent and that 20 per cent is a lot of players. All the work we are doing, such as in youth development, is aimed at doing that over the next few years and it's great to see some very good players coming through now such as Jack Wilshere. We need many more. Bernstein believes England are in good hands with Hodgson. "The spirit engendered by Roy has been absolutely excellent,"" Bernstein told Sky. I think things are in really good shape. I am confident that we will move on, get the results and qualify for the World Cup. I am sure that having played in the Maracana that the players will be desperate to get back here. Our public want it, our fans want it, the players want it, the manager desperately wants it. Bernstein retires this summer but will remain in football, working on the Fifa anti-discrimination task force.
