Southampton striker Lambert aims to seal World Cup spot

Southampton striker Ricki Lambert aims to cement his place in England coach Roy Hodgson's World Cup plans.

He is hoping to use the forthcoming games against Chile and Germany as a means of cementing his place in Hodgson's World Cup squad.

"I will try to continue to impress and, if I get a chance on Friday or Tuesday, whether I am starting of coming on as a sub, I will be determined to do well," the former Rochdale and Bristol Rovers man said.

"(Going to the World Cup) is a possibility and that is what I am aware of.

"I know how hard it is going to be to get there. It is a long way away and I know how hard it is going to be."
