increasing rate, shows a Sky Sports study. Over the past 20 years, the average
number of top-flight appearances made by a player before they earned their first
England cap has steadily decreased. In 1996, footballers, on average, made 75
Premier League appearances before making their England debut. That average
figure is now down to 33 games, with Manchester Uniteds Marcus Rashford and
Tottenhams Dele Alli prime examples. The average number of top-flight
appearances before an England debut has dropped from 75 to 33 since 1996 United
striker Rashford only made his professional debut in February but was playing
for England by May - after just 11 Premier League appearances. Alli, meanwhile,
made the step up after just seven top-flight fixtures with Spurs. Raheem
Sterling (13 top-flight appearances) and Ross Barkley (16) have also been quick
to pull on the Three Lions jersey, although Theo Walcott became Englands
youngest-ever player at 17 years and 74 days in 2006 without making one
top-flight appearance. Raheem Sterling only made 13 Premier League appearances
before making his senior England debut Since 1996, seven other players have been
handed their England debut without playing one minute in Englands top flight:
Fraser Forster, Rickie Lambert, Wilfried Zaha, Jack Butland, David Nugent, Owen
Hargreaves and Kevin Phillips.However, Hargreaves made his name in Germany with
Bayern Munich and became the only player in history to represent England without
ever having lived in the country.In contrast, Kevin Davies made 382 top-flight
appearances before making his England debut against Montenegro in 2010 - more
than any other player over the last 20 years.Tim Sherwood racked up 324
appearances before his first international cap in 1999, followed by Leon Osman
(259), Trevor Sinclair (218), James Milner (205), Chris Sutton (194) and Lee
Bowyer (192). Also See: History of Eng-Scot football rivalry WC qualifying state

Queenslands NRL preliminary final against Cronulla on Friday night.However, boom
teenager Kalyn Ponga remained on standby for veteran centre Kane Linnett when
the Cowboys flew out for Sydney on Wednesday.Cowboys assistant Todd Payten ran a
line through Wintersteins name as a rowdy North Queensland contingent bid
farewell to their beloved NRL club at Townsville airport.He wont be training
with us, no, Payten said of Wintersteins plight.The winger was not named for the
Sharks clash but had been hoping to battle back from a rib complaint that forced
him to miss last weeks extra-time semi-final win over Brisbane.Javid Bowen will
now slot onto the wing for Winterstein.But the jury is out on whether Linnett
will return from a hamstring complaint that sidelined him for the sudden death
semi-final.North Queensland coach Paul Green described Linnett as likely to play
the grand final qualifier in a reshuffled backline.Cowboys under 20s star Ponga
still flew out with the team on Wednesday.Kalyn is coming down as cover for
Kane, Payten said.The coaches believe its also a good experience for Kalyn to
see how we do things travelling away and being in the finals system.But we
expect him to run out for the 20s.Cowboys coach Paul Green said Linnett will be
given every chance to take the field against the Sharks.ddddddddddddHes worked
hard doing everything he can around the clock to get back in, Green said.He
(Ponga) didnt let anyone down last week, he did a good job on his debut.(But) he
is there as back-up.The Cowboys under 20s play reigning premiers Penrith in
their own Friday night preliminary final.Ponga - just 18 - became the sixth
player in 30 years to make his NRL debut in a final after being a shock call up
for Winterstein against Brisbane.But Ponga belied his age to amass 174m, two
tackle busts and a line break, almost scoring with his second touch.He has
already earned the next Johnathan Thurston tag.Ponga got the thumbs up from the
man himself.Hes obviously got a big future at the club, Cowboys co-captain
Thurston said of Ponga.Hes come through the system.Theres a genuine pathway and
players can now aspire to follow him.His impressive debut has ensured the
Cowboys will begin off-season contract extension talks, despite Pongas current
deal not expiring until the end of 2017.Rival NRL clubs as well as rugby union
and even the AFLs Brisbane Lions are believed to be ready to pounce. ' ' '
