Peter Crouch and David Beckham are set for the World Cup
Everyone awaits Fabio Capello’s finalised decision of who he thinks will give England a chance of winning the World Cup in 2010. It appears that England’s 3-0 win over Belarus has helped him on his way as there were several players that really shined through and bookies are becoming more certain that they know who is going to be in the line up.
In particular, after England’s last game, Sky Bet decided it was necessary to re think their odds. One player in particular who benefited from this was Peter Crouch who had his odds shortened dramatically from 4/6 to 1/3 after scoring 2 goals for his country.
A spokesperson from Sky Bet explained, “Crouch’s impressive display last night now probably puts him ahead of the likes of Gabby Agbonlahor and Carlton Cole. As for Beckham, we were already a short price about him making the squad and barring injury it seems very unlikely that he will miss out.”
Although David Beckham has always been at the top of the picking list, there was worry that in the recent years he has strayed to other clubs and may not be ‘fit’ for England, but after being awarded man-of-the-match he is now priced at 2/7.
