England are 20s with Sportsbook.com to win Euro 2008. Winger Wright-Phillips missed Wednesday's training session with an ankle problem but came through without any worries after a testing session at London Colney. All 24 players at under fire manager Steve McClaren's disposal will make the trip for a match intended as a warm-up for next Wednesday's crucial Euro 2008 qualifier with Croatia at Wembley. However, that game will be meaningless if Russia beat Israel in the Middle East on Saturday. Rumours are rife that Scott Carson will make his first start for his country in place of shaky Paul Robinson. Liverpool keeper Carson, who is currently on loan at Aston Villa, has shown some tremendous form for Martin O'Neill's side. Carson´s Villa team-mate Gareth Barry will probably be on the bench against the Austrians with McClaren going for the Steven Gerrard-Frank Lampard pairing in central midfield. Left-footed Barry has impressed during the Euro 2008 qualifiers held in Estonia and Russia so it comes as a surprise that McLaren is reverting to Chelsea´s Lampard. |
