That would be a surprise but there are other names also in contention including Steven Gerrard and Duncan Ferguson.

This is some high praise indeed. He has a recall option in January so it will be interesting to see how that develops.
Ghana are in action against Switzerland this morning but Antoine Semenyo starts on the bench in Abu Dhabi.
With their first World Cup game coming against Portugal on Thursday, the City striker could be introduced at half-time with Otto Addo keen to take a look at his squad.
