USA coach Bob Bradley says defender Oguchi Onyewu is ready to play ninety minutes against England and the defender is also keen to play, despite not playing a full ninety minutes since October last year.
Bradley used him as a 61st minute substitute against Australia on Saturday and the player would have liked more.
"Obviously, yeah, I would love to be able to see if I could have played a full 90," Onyewu said yesterday.
USA play England on Saturday in the first World Cup match of the campaign and Bradley is keen to have his strongest team available and is also confident that Jozy Altidore will be available after spraining his ankle in the warm up match against Austrlia last week.
Altidore took part in training yesterday and Bradley knows he is available: "He's available for whatever role we choose for Saturday."
