LENNON & HUDDLESTONE

Found this on the BBC site Jim . . . . . . . .


England coach Fabio Capello has wrung the changes for their final friendly before the World Cup, handing starts to Tom Huddlestone and Darren Bent.
Tottenham midfielder Huddlestone and Sunderland striker Bent will be given the chance to impress the England boss against Japan in Graz on Sunday.
Chelsea trio John Terry, Ashley Cole and Frank Lampard return after being rested for Monday's win over Mexico.
Capello will trim his official World Cup squad from 30 to 23 on Tuesday.
Manchester City's Gareth Barry is not included in the squad for Sunday's game but the midfielder will be given right up until Tuesday's deadline to prove his fitness after an ankle injury.
Capello explained: "Barry is getting better and better, he has improved a lot and the doctor has said he will probably be ok for South Africa but we need to have a last check by the doctor."
England's line-up for the friendly in Austria has a slightly experimental look with Tottenham's Aaron Lennon starting on the right wing and Arsenal's Theo Walcott operating in an unaccustomed left-wing role.
Portsmouth goalkeeper David James comes into the side as he aims to establish himself as England's number one ahead of West Ham's Robert Green, who impressed against Mexico, and Joe Hart of Manchester City.
Bent, who missed the game against Mexico with a hamstring injury, will start as Capello tries another strike partner with Manchester United talisman Wayne Rooney.
The pair scored 50 Premier League goals between them this season but Bent has Peter Crouch, Jermain Defoe, and Emile Heskey to battle with for a place on the plane to South Africa.
Captain Rio Ferdinand will lead the side out, while Glen Johnson continues at right-back.
Unless Capello makes any late changes to his starting line-up for the game against Japan there will be seven players yet to feature in England's two World Cup warm-up games, either starting or as a substitute.
However, the seven of Chelsea's Joe Cole, Tottenham's Michael Dawson, West Ham's Matthew Upson and Scott Parker, Manchester City's Shaun Wright-Phillips and Aston Villa's Stephen Warnock and Emile Heskey could still come off the bench on Sunday.



England team to face Japan:
David James, Glen Johnson, John Terry, Rio Ferdinand, Ashley Cole, Theo Walcott, Tom Huddlestone, Frank Lampard, Aaron Lennon, Wayne Rooney, Darren Bent.
