Venables rates Liverpool whiz Sterling England's most dangerous

Former Barcelona coach Terry Venables believes Liverpool youngster Raheem Sterling can be England's most dangerous player.

Venables is a big fan of Sterling and wrote in the Independent: "Raheem Sterling causes opponents trouble.

"The boy is, without a doubt, an outstanding player. He does well from long distances but when he is playing in that hole, he can get into the goal area all the time. I am not sure he's a real goal-scorer at the moment, but I think he has it in him to be one.

"Sturridge and Rooney can play up there, with Sterling in that hole, or Rooney can drop back, or even Sturridge can come back. That rotation complicates the game for the opposition."
