Liverpool ace Suarez warns England: I'll be ready for you

Liverpool striker Luis Suarez is confident he'll be fit for Uruguay's World Cup clash with England. The Daily Star says Suarez has spoken to some of his Liverpool team-mates in the Three Lions squad to tell them he is winning his injury battle.

The Uruguay striker feared he would be KO'd for the tournament in Brazil after breaking down in training with a knee problem last week.

The Reds superstar was forced to have surgery, which cast serious doubt on his fitness ahead of the finals.

Uruguay will face England in Sao Paulo on June 19 in what promises to be a crucial Group D showdown.
