Butt main doubt for England for Austria tie

MIDFIELDER Nicky Butt yesterday emerged as Sven Goran Eriksson’s main injury doubt ahead of the World Cup qualifiers against Austria and Poland.

Eriksson had been fretting over the fitness of Manchester City winger Shaun Wright-Phillips, but his back injury was not as bad as feared.

Wright-Phillips took part in England’s first session but Butt was back at the team hotel receiving treatment on a hamstring injury which is a cause of concern to England’s medical staff.
