Jonathan Woodgate’s career took yet another boost when Steve Mcclaren recalled him for the squad that will play againt Spain in a friendly at Old Trafford next week.

That doesn’t mean he might start the game, but there might just be luck smilling on him as i doubt Mcclaren (and Chelsea) would want to play John Terry so soon after his recovery.

Woodgate said: ‘I never stopped believing I would win a recall. I kept the belief that I would get picked again if I got a run of games.

‘I know there was talk of me getting selected before Christmas but I wasn’t ready for it then. I am now.

I am playing two and three games a week without any problems and my fitness is getting better all the time.

‘I do not feel I am playing better then I have done in the past when I was at Leeds, Newcastle and Real Madrid, but it is all about getting a run of games together, and it has been great to do that with my home-town club.

‘I am looking forward to it.’

Woodgate said he ‘never stopped believing”….any chance for Becks than? :P
