Robert Green Remains Favourite To Be England World Cup Goalkeeper Despite Conceding Sixty Goals This Season
Tuesday 20 April 2010 at 14:42
Robert Green is expected to be the England World Cup Goalkeeper by the bookies despite having conceded sixty goals in the Premiership so far this season in just thirty five games.
Robert Green Expected To Start Against USA But Many Fans Want Hart
Bet365 make Robert Green the 6/5 favourite to start in goal for England in their first World Cup game against USA. Robert Green has been one of West Ham's better players this season but has conceded sixty goals so far in goal for Hammers in the Premiership. Joe Hart has conceded just over half that figure in goal for Birmingham this season yet he is considered third choice at the dismay of many England fans. Joe Hart can currently be backed at 10/3 with Bet365, mainly due to his lack of international experience, should he play in one of England's friendlies before the game you can be sure his odds will shorten.
David James Looks Second Choice Whilst Paul Robinson Should Miss Out On Squad
David James is coming to the end of his career but he may still have one big tournament in him, he is considered England's second choice goalkeeper at the moment and can be backed at 7/4 with Bet365 to start against USA. Paul Robinson was England's number one for the last World Cup and he looks best of the rest at 25/1 with Bet365, but as England's number four he is only likely to go to the World Cup if one of the other choices gets injured. The fifth choice looks to be Ben Foster, he has had a massive fall from grace this season and is now 33/1 with Bet365 to start England's first World Cup game.
