Rio Ferdinand has admitted being axed by England coach Sven Goran Eriksson earlier in the season acted as a "wake-up call".

Now the Manchester United centre-back is looking to make up for the disappointment of being suspended for the Euro 2004 finals, after failing to attend a drugs test, by helping his country to World Cup glory this summer.

Ferdinand found himself dropped by Eriksson for the home World Cup qualifier against Austria at Old Trafford in October, with Sol Campbell partnering John Terry at the back. And Ferdinand said: "The manager said 'I am not going to play you against Austria' and being told something like that is devastating."
