Wilshere in England Under-21 squad
Wilshere, 17, was drafted in late for the recent friendly against Holland and Stuart Pearce wants to use him again as his youngsters start their route to the 2011 finals in Denmark.[LNB]Manchester United forward Danny Welbeck returns to the squad after missing the summer finals in Sweden and will compete for a place in the starting XI in Prilep on September 4 and then Tripoli in Greece four days later.[LNB]"The opportunity to have the players together for 10 days gives us the chance to take a look at them a lot closer in training," Pearce told TheFA.com.[LNB]"The Holland trip was vital for us to begin the start of another two-year cycle and see one or two new players before the competitive games begin.[LNB]"What we have to do as a squad is hit the ground running next week. We have two very tough qualifiers to start the campaign, both away from home, and we need to make sure we pick up as many points as we can."[LNB]United midfielder Tom Cleverley, who is on loan at Watford, also comes into Pearce's squad for the first time.[LNB]"Anyone playing well in the other age groups we'll look at them," said Pearce. "I obviously get a report from the coaches and a copy of the game to see them all. I have been very impressed with Tom and I also went into Watford and watched him train there."[LNB]Pearce added: "It's very early in the season, there's some that have done well for their clubs and some have gone out on loan. Hopefully as the weeks go by we'll have more and more players playing first team football.[LNB]"We're looking forward to these two games. The players will be prepared and I'm delighted with their attitude after the first game of the season in Holland. We'll know even more about them at the end of this 10-day period."[LNB][LNB][LNB]
