Man Utd hero Sheringham: England should play Gerrard at fullback

Manchester United legend Teddy Sheringham believes England should consider playing Liverpool ace Steven Gerrard at right-back.

Tottenham fullback Kyle Walker is suspended for tonight's World Cup qualifier with Poland.

"You could always put Steven Gerrard there because then you've got delivery coming from the right back, which might be essential," said Sheringham, who was speaking to talkSPORT.

"We've got great delivery from the left in Leighton Baines and with Gerrard on the right, it might release Jack Wilshere or Michael Carrick to play, then you've got someone threading a lovely ball through from that position as well."
