Sunderland midfielder Lee Cattermole has put his hand up for an England call.
Cattermole has invited Roy Hodgson to the Stadium of Light - for the Sunderland enforcer believes he is the man to anchor England's midfield.
The 26-year-old said: "You see lads getting opportunities now and for me that has got to be a motivation.
"In recent years, it is not something for me to be too interested in because of the names that were playing - the Gerrards and the Lampards. But you look at the boys who have got in and who are playing well and that is something that I am trying to achieve.
"So yes, it has become a goal for me getting into the squad. England is going through that cycle of change right now.
"We've got a few English players here - Jack Rodwell, Adam Johnson, Connor Wickham and me - and I'd like to think Roy Hodgson will come up (to see us play)."
