    On Thursday evening England recorded a routine 5-0 win against San Marino that leaves Roy Hodgson's side sitting pretty at the top of Group E.

    They are ahead of Lithuania on goal difference, with Estonia in third place on three points from two games. Hodgson has already targeted 10 wins from 10 games...

    Was this the moment that Roy Hodgson told Raheem Sterling that he wouldn't be playing today? The England boss took the Liverpool wunderkind to one side on Saturday night as the players checked out the surface in Tallinn.

    Given the opposition, the state of the group and the quality of his replacement in Adam Lallana, I wouldn't say it was a big call by Roy - but it could easily turn into one if things go bad...

    "England manager Roy Hodgson devoted some time to talking to Liverpool's Raheem Sterling as he and his squad had a brief walkabout on the playing surface at Tallinn's Le Coq Arena on Saturday night.

    "As his team selection was revealed, you now suspect the chat might have been about why Sterling has been rested for this Euro 2016 qualifier here in Estonia. It would be stretching the point to suggest Hodgson has taken a major gamble by leaving Sterling out but it still comes as something of a surprise.

    "Cold night here in Tallinn and Sterling's Liverpool team-mate Adam Lallana has been rewarded for a fine 45-minute display in the 5-0 win against San Marino with a starting place as England attempt to make it three straight wins at the start of their qualifying campaign."

    England make three changes from the side which beat San Marino 5-0, as Raheem Sterling is rested. Adam Lallana takes his place, and Fabian Delph also gets a start in midfield.

    England: Hart; Chambers, Cahill, Jagielka, Baines; Henderson, Wilshere, Delph, Lallana; Welbeck, Rooney.

    Tere tulemast! Or, welcome to Tallinn!

    For the best part of 20 years hordes of Englishmen have been heading to the Estonian capital for stag dos, no doubt making a show of themselves and leaving the beautiful old town rather worse for wear.

    Well this evening it's time for another party of 20 or so young men from England to put on a show on the Baltic coast. Roy Hodgson is in the role of best man, chaperoning his testosterone-charged group from the hostel (possibly hotel) to their first port of call.

    Like any good stag do it's all kicking off too early in the afternoon. We can expect plenty of shots, some ill-advised decisions, names on the back of shirts and some generally poor behaviour all round.

    England need to get a result and get home before heading back to work in the morning. All aboard...
