Spurs ace Parker backing Walker for England breakthrough

Scott Parker isn't surprised Tottenham teammate Kyle Walker is in line to make his England debut tomorrow night.

Walker hit the headlines with his brilliant winner against Arsenal, although Parker believes there is far more to the 21-year-old's game than thunderbolt shots.

"Since I have been at Tottenham, Kyle has really stood out," said the midfielder.

"He is a fantastic player. He is young. He has bundles of energy and is very quick.

"He scored a very good goal at the weekend but his performance before that was really good. I am sure if he is called upon on Friday he will be more than ready to go."
