HRE Henry V and Empress Matilda have a son

Just like in Anjou. So how did Henry ii gather an army for his campaign in England and why would this Henry have more trouble?

Levy system I presume.

I can see what you are saying, I just wonder, would Germans want to fight a war in France and England?
 
Given how busy young Henry will be burdened by the affairs of the HRE,I doubt he will go to England.The HRE is just chaotic,ever since Henry IV.If he's got the time and money,the guy might fight his vassals and try to assert control over the Italian city states instead.Henry I will most likely be pressured to get himself another heir,either by legitimising his numerous bastards or adopting one of his nephews for the task.

Interesting, do you not think that this Henry would sack off the HRE to claim the throne?

Really there's no way for him to establish anything in England? Well that sucks
