Jake Livermore believes the form of Hull City team-mate Tom Huddlestone is deserving of a recall to the England squad.

Progress

Meanwhile, Hull's head of medical services Rob Price has announced that Robert Koren and James Chester have made positive starts to their respective recoveries from foot and hamstring problems. He told the club's official website: "With injuries, it isn't always black and white and you have to see how people progress. "When we say it could be eight weeks, that doesn't necessarily mean that it will be eight weeks because we always hope we can get them back a little bit quicker than that. "Robert is doing particularly well with his rehab and we're hopeful that within the next three weeks he could be back out there with the team. "With James, he has some damage to one of his hamstring tendons and you have to really give that a couple of weeks to settle down for it to start to form some scar tissue before we can start loading him. "But he's doing well in the early stages of his rehab and, again, he's also working on some other areas. Hopefully in around 10 days we'll be able to start pushing him a little bit more."
