I don't think the English FA said it, but I think a number of clubs have stated that. In any case, on current form, Bent will be nowhere near the England Euro Squad.

As far as Hutton goes, he's had a very poor season and would be very surprised if he was included as an overage player.

I think there is about 300 players on the provisional list!

Aye, but they've sold something like 1,000,000 of 2,300,000 available tickets!
