Bale was supposed to as well but he dropped out last minute
Sturridge and Danny rose were amongst the England players.
If bale had played I think they could have gone further.

I can understand why they wanted Giggs involved but he was like 38 then and way past his peak. And you really want you overage players to be in positions that don't usually mature until later like goalkeeper, centre back or target man.
