    Will Carling

    "Part of the pressure is to deal with it and to stay calm, stay controlled and realise they have got four pool games, there is plenty of time and to start well," added Carling.

    "I think there is huge pressure on England being the home World Cup for them and also being in the hardest pool the World Cup has ever seen.

    "It’s important they start in a controlled composed way which will give them a lot of confidence.”

    Andy Carroll is in contention for West Ham after recovering from a knee injury, but Alex Song, who has rejoined on loan, is out with an ankle problem. The Hammers' trio of new signings, Victor Moses, Michail Antonio and Nikica Jelavic, are all available.

    Newcastle will be without striker Aleksandar Mitrovic, who is serving a three-match suspension. Defender Paul Dummett is also out after suffering a setback in his recovery from a hamstring injury.

  17. Commentator's notes

    West Ham Utd v Newcastle Utd (20:00 BST)

    Jonathan Pearce

    BBC football commentator

    Upton Park has been blanketed with sentimentality as it enters the final season. The players have looked stifled by it all, starting with defeats by Bournemouth and Leicester like shuffling sleepwalkers.

    Slaven Bilic

    But the old ground really wakes up under floodlights. Now West Ham's home form might match their away successes.

    With just one goal in eight away league games, Newcastle lack potency. They've averaged just over 30% of possession in their last three games.

    If West Ham start well, the visitors might not see enough of the ball to get back into it.

  19. Change of mood

    Manchester City v Juventus (Tues, 19:45 BST)

    Ian Cheeseman

    BBC Radio Manchester's City commentator

    Sergio Aguero

    How quickly things change in football. A week ago, Manchester City had Sergio Aguero fully fit with Wilfried Bony and Kelechi Iheanacho in reserve, but going into their first Champions League game against Juventus, Aguero is injured and Iheanacho, the hero at Crystal Palace, was not registered in the European squad.

    On the other hand, the return of David Silva and Raheem Sterling is a huge boost and, although Manuel Pellegrini would not confirm that Kevin De Bruyne will start against the Italians, it looks likely that he will.

  20. What the manager says - Slaven Bilic

    West Ham Utd v Newcastle Utd (20:00 BST)

    "We have to start picking up points at home, and I'm very confident because our reactions in the second halves of both games were good, and if we can do it from the start and cut out the silly mistakes, we will be alright."

    Mark Lawrenson

    Nobody is doubting the ability of Newcastle boss Steve McClaren - but now it is a case of him finding his best team and knitting it together. West Ham are proving very difficult to predict at the moment, winning away at Arsenal and Liverpool but losing both games at home, so I am probably best off going for a draw.

    "In between the showers, their seamers had plugged away, picking up the wickets of Chris Nash and Luke Wright, but it was the extra pace of Overton that first unsettled the Sussex captain and then removed him."

    Bangladesh police have stepped up their hunt for cricketer Shahadat Hossain, who has gone into hiding over claims he and his wife beat their 11-year-old maid, say officers investigating.

    g

    The 29-year-old paceman was suspended from all forms of cricket on Sunday as police investigate allegations he "tortured and abused" the maid who is undergoing treatment in hospital.

    A police officer investigating the case said Hossain's mobile phone is now being tracked and officers are hopeful of arresting him soon.

    "We've mobilised 10 mobile teams of officers to arrest him. We're making raids almost every day and are now tracking mobile phones," inspector Shafiqur Rahman told the AFP news agency.

  85. Role for Lehmann?

    Football

    Former Arsenal and Germany goalkeeper Jens Lehmann is a candidate for the vacant director of sport role at former Bundesliga giants Nuremberg, who are now languishing in Germany's second division.

    "You can't say that Lehmann wouldn't be interesting. He's a personality," Nuremberg's chairman Thomas Grethlein said.

    Lehmann, 45, retired in 2011 after winning 61 caps for Germany, plus 148 Premier League appearances for Arsenal, and has been working as a television pundit for German broadcaster RTL.

  89. Not for the faint-hearted

    Football

    Is being manager of non-league New Mills the hardest job in football?

    We're not even sure Sir Alex Ferguson could cope at the Derbyshire club after they appointed their fourth manager in three months.

    The latest to go was Andy Fearn, who resigned as manager after a 7-1 home defeat to Prescot Cables that left his side bottom of the table, having lost all eight matches this season and conceding 30 goals.

    New Mills had got through two managers before the season had started with Roy Soule leaving in June and his replacement Keith Briggs also departing to to take up a coaching job at Sheffield United.

    Maybe Brown could read BBC Sports' Ben Dirs' piece on the trials of being a football manager.

    Rotherham boss Steve Evans will not discuss speculation linking him to the vacant managerial position at Peterborough until after his side's visit to Brighton on Tuesday.

    "I have nothing to say about Peterborough United," Evans said.
