England names roster for Netherlands friendly

Soccer Betting Lines

02/23/2012 - London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - England interim manager Stuart Pearce named a 25-man roster Thursday for an upcoming friendly against the Netherlands, and Fraizer Campbell and Tom Cleverley were both handed their first call-ups.

Pearce also called up Steven Gerrard, who is healthy enough to rejoin the team for the first time since 2010. The Liverpool captain could also become England captain, replacing John Terry in that role.

Terry was stripped of the England captaincy by the English FA, which led Fabio Capello to quit as coach earlier this month. Pearce has stepped in to lead the team for its friendly against the Dutch.

"I'd like to thank Fabio and his staff for the education they gave me over the last three-and-a-half to four years, it was invaluable," Pearce said.

England hosts the Netherlands, 2010 World Cup runner-up, at Wembley Stadium on Wednesday. England also has games against Norway on May 26 and Belgium on June 2 scheduled before the 2012 Euro finals.

Following is the complete England roster:

Goalkeepers: Joe Hart (Manchester City), Scott Carson (Bursaspor), Robert Green (West Ham).

Defenders: Micah Richards (Manchester City), Gary Cahill (Chelsea), Ashley Cole (Chelsea), Leighton Baines (Everton), Glen Johnson (Liverpool), Phil Jones (Manchester United), Chris Smalling (Manchester United), Kyle Walker (Tottenham).

Midfielders: Steven Gerrard (Liverpool), Gareth Barry (Manchester City), Tom Cleverley (Manchester United), Stewart Downing (Liverpool), Adam Johnson (Manchester City), James Milner (Manchester City), Scott Parker (Tottenham), Ashley Young (Manchester United), Theo Walcott (Arsenal).

Strikers: Danny Welbeck (Manchester United), Darren Bent (Aston Villa), Fraizer Campbell (Sunderland), Daniel Sturridge (Chelsea), Wayne Rooney (Manchester United).

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship.  Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92.  After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points.  Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1.  Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years.  With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed.  UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern.  Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier.  OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak.  Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four.  It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta.  But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
