Dunn tipped to become England star

DAVID DUNN finally made the breakthrough to the full England squad yesterday — and was immediately tipped to make a regular impression on the international set-up.

The Blackburn midfielder was drafted into Sven-Goran Eriksson’s party for the friendly against Portugal at Villa Park on Saturday following the withdrawal of Newcastle’s Kieron Dyer.

Former Under-21 captain Dunn was on stand-by for the World Cup squad over the summer and has impressed again at the start of the new season, scoring in Rovers’ 2-2 draw with Liverpool at Ewood Park last Wednesday.
