Jenas and Woodgate enhanced their chances of establishing themselves in the England side with impressive performances in Spurs' Carling Cup final win over Chelsea in front of the on-looking Capello.

Jenas: "I cannot speak highly enough of how good our two centre-backs (Woodgate and Ledley King) are. These two can easily be England regulars.

"They are both world-class players. Woody has come to a new club but he has fitted in so quickly.

"The thing about Spurs is that quite a few of us are English lads.

"Apart from myself, there's Tom Huddlestone, Robbo in goal plus Aaron Lennon, Michael Dawson - and the two other centre-backs.

"We spoke of England's disappointment at exiting the Euros and English football was questioned. But look at our team - there are good players here who are English."
