LMAO: Anton Sets Sights on Full England Squad!
This season he's lucky to be in the full West Ham squad!

Anton Ferdinand has set his sights on a first senior call-up to the England squad.
The West Ham defender, 22, is set to play for England Under 21s in the friendly with Italy Under 21s on Saturday.
The game will be the first professional match to be played at the new Wembley stadium, and Ferdinand is keen to emulate the success of his brother Rio at the new ground.
"I never played at the old Wembley, but I saw Rio play there," he told the Daily Star. "Hopefully I can go from playing there with the Under 21s to playing there with the full squad."

Yeah, and I'm sure Hayden Mullins would like to play for England too.
Norven & Carole - sorry you can't make it, but I'm sure we'll catch up one day (next year's FA Cup final?)
Dave - good luck to you and J, I didn't realise it was so close!

Mascherano deal faces FA scrutiny
Mascherano failed to make an impact after joining West Ham
The Football Association has said it will investigate allegations of financial impropriety over West Ham's signing of Javier Mascherano last year.
The News of the World claims to have documents detailing a £339,000 payment in relation to the deal, which was not disclosed, as required, to the FA.
An FA spokesman said: "We have received documents and will be investigating."
The Premier League is probing the signings of Mascherano and Carlos Tevez but the Hammers have denied the charge.
The Argentine pair joined West Ham on 31 August from Brazilian side Corinthians.
However, their registration with third party Media Sports Investment may have broken Premier League regulations.
A Hammers spokesman told the News of the World: "All documents relating to the Mascherano and Tevez transfers have now been submitted to the Premier League to assist with their ongoing inquiry.
"That includes the so-called third party agreements and all payments relating to them, which were passed on by the club's new owners in January."
Mascherano was given special dispensation to join Liverpool last month but Tevez remains at Upton Park - where he is leading the club's push to survive relegation.
