England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson has admitted he could utilise Steven Gerrard as a striker during the World Cup.

The Liverpool captain scored two stunning goals plus a penalty in the shoot-out against West Ham in Saturday's FA Cup final and was prolific for his club all season. With doubts lingering over Wayne Rooney's chances of being fit to play any role in Germany, Eriksson claimed Gerrard could well be asked to fill his role just behind Michael Owen.

"I've known for many years Steven Gerrard can play a lot of positions and one is second striker. I'm sure he could also play as a first striker, and he's also excellent at right-back."
