Tottenham midfielder Huddlestone: My first serious England game

Tottenham midfielder Tom Huddlestone is eyeing an England debut next week.

Tuesday's game against Montenegro could see him make his competitive international debut, with his other call-ups all being for friendly games.

"The only squads I've been in before have been for friendlies, so to be called up for a qualifier, a match that means a lot with three points at stake, is special," said Huddlestone, whose three previous caps came against Brazil, Mexico and Japan.

"It's nice to be a part of it. It seems like a long time since I was at the training camp before the World Cup and it's good to be back in the squad.

"At the same time, there are a few injuries as well, so you never know what would have happened if a few players had been fully fit."
