Rafael Benitez has backed Jamie Carragher to be a crucial player for England at this summer's World Cup if he agrees to come out of international retirement.
Speculation is rife that our No.23 will be called into the squad by Fabio Capello this week as England continues to struggle with defensive injuries.
Benitez said: "Carragher is always fit and I think he will be a very good option for England.
"They have centre-backs but they have had some problems. Carragher can also play in two different positions. He can help England.
"I think he'll be in the squad and I say congratulations because I think it will be good for him."
Carragher originally retired from international football in 2007.
