Liverpool's Gerrard in line for 99th England cap

Steven Gerrard is focussing on winning Tuesday night's World Cup qualifier against Poland and playing down talk of a potential 100 caps for England. The 32-year-old Liverpool midfielder will rack up his 99th England appearance if he features for Roy Hodgson's men in Warsaw.

"Every time you put the England shirt on it is a proud moment," said Gerrard.

"To get 99 is a fantastic achievement for myself but it will only be a good memory tomorrow night if we get the three points that we came for."

Asked whether he could recall his most significant game for England, Gerrard added: "If I was pushed and had to pick one game it would have to be Germany, the 1-5 game away in Munich."
