Morison backs Holt for England

Striker feels team-mate can do a job at international level



Steve Morison believes Norwich City team-mate Grant Holt is capable of playing for England and feels the striker can force his way into the Euro 2012 squad.

Holt is the joint second-highest scoring English forward in the Premier League this season behind Wayne Rooney, who will miss the opening two games of the European Championship through suspension.

With Darren Bent likely to sit out the tournament through injury, whoever is appointed England coach will have mostly inexperienced options to select from. Holt has scored 10 goals in the top flight this season following Norwich's promotion and Wales international Morison feels his strike partner deserves a chance with England. - http://www1.skysports.com/
