BBC Brains Come to Bridge, Don’t Cross Him Off

Continuing in their series of analyses of England players and potential players, the Beeb arrive at poor, snakebit Wayne Bridge.

Rightly, I think, they reckon he’d be a shoo-in on Sven’s squad if he could stay healthy. At this very minute, though, it’s a gamble.

But: with Sol still injured (coughDAFTcough), Rio always nearly a basket case and Woodgate made of even more fragile stuff than Lil’ Mick, I think Sven may have to take a gamble and include Bridge. When he’s on his game, he’s first-rate.
