Hodgson admits West Brom striker Berahino, West Ham's Morrison on his radar

England coach Roy Hodgson admits West Ham United midfielder Ravel Morrison and West Bromwich Albion striker Saido Berahino have caught his attention.

The Under 21s stuffed Lithuania 5-0 at Portman Road on Tuesday, with Hodgson suggesting some are equipped to make it to Brazil.

"At the moment their first task would be to get beyond the youngsters we already have. Ravel (Morrison) has done ever so well, as has Saido (Berahino).

"One always welcomes those heavy knocks at the doors from those who are screaming 'listen I am the one you have to choose, I am better' but we have a strong squad at the moment so it wont be easy to break in."
