James Returns For England
Posted on October 4th, 2009 by Pompey
David James has been selected in Fabio Capello’s England squad to face Ukraine and Belarus.
The 39-year-old Blues keeper has missed his country's last five games after undergoing surgery and suffering a knee injury.
But he has since returned to full fitness and some impressive form of late has earned him a place in the 24-man party.
The Three Lions have qualified for next summer’s World Cup in South Africa with two games to spare.
They finish their qualifying campaign with a trip to Ukraine on Saturday, October 10, before Belarus visit Wembley on Wednesday, October 14.
England squad: Robert Green (West Ham), David James (POMPEY), Paul Robinson (Blackburn); Wayne Bridge (Man City), Wes Brown (Man Utd), Ashley Cole (Chelsea), Rio Ferdinand (Man Utd), Glen Johnson (Liverpool), Joleon Lescott (Man City), John Terry (Chelsea), Matthew Upson (West Ham); Gareth Barry (Man City), David Beckham (LA Galaxy), Michael Carrick (Man Utd), Steven Gerrard (Liverpool), Frank Lampard (Chelsea), Aaron Lennon (Tottenham), James Milner (Aston Villa), Shaun Wright-Phillips (Man City); Gabriel Agbonlahor (Aston Villa), Carlton Cole (West Ham), Peter Crouch (Tottenham), Emile Heskey (Aston Villa), Wayne Rooney (Man Utd)
