Manchester United midfielder Owen Hargreaves is being considered for an amazing England World Cup call.

While Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini said he thought Gareth Barry could be back in action in 'three or four weeks' after damaging ankle ligaments against Tottenham on Wednesday, the FA fear he could be sidelined for closer to two months.

The Daily Mail says that has forced them to consider another amazing comeback - that of Hargreaves, who is only just back in Manchester United's squad after 19 months out with a serious knee problem.

England coach Fabio Capello was not prepared to take a chance on Hargreaves, but he realises he might have to now.
