Liverpool's Henderson lands England Euros call

Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson has been named in England's squad to replace injured Chelsea ace Frank Lampard.

England U21 skipper Henderson had been on stand-by but a thigh strain suffered in training by Lampard means he should now join Glen Johnson, Steven Gerrard, Stewart Downing and Andy Carroll in Roy Hodgson's party.

A statement on the FA website read: "Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson will be called into the squad - subject to agreement from UEFA's medical team."
