Bolton captain Davies hopes Cahill gets England start

Bolton Wanderers captain Kevin Davies hopes teammate Gary Cahill earns his England chance later today against Brazil.

After sitting out his last four appearances in the national squad without making a debut, Cahill has travelled to Qatar, hoping to make it a fifth time lucky in this afternoon's prestige friendly against Brazil.

"I know he's frustrated with the England thing and wants to prove he can get in there and do a job," he said. "I think he can do that job, he will just have to bide his time a little bit because he's one for the future. He'll be hard for us to keep hold of somewhere down the line."
