Bridge gets the call

Last updated : 02 September 2002 By Christian Kelly

His performances this season are continuing to improve and there is little doubt that he is the best left back available. Perhaps Svenn Goran Eriksson will try out Ashley Cole in midfield with Bridge at the back, as this would seem an excellent partnership.

The full squad is : James (West Ham), Robinson (Leeds); Mills (Leeds), Ashley Cole (Arsenal), Bridge (Southampton), Ferdinand (Man Utd), Southgate (Middlesbrough), Woodgate (Leeds); Beckham (Man Utd), Butt (Man Utd), Dyer (Newcastle), Sinclair (West Ham), Murphy
(Liverpool), Gerrard (Liverpool), Hargreaves (Bayern Munich), Bowyer (Leeds), J Cole (West Ham), Owen (Liverpool), Heskey (Liverpool), Smith (Leeds).
