A win in the Ukraine will put England in the driving seat for automatic qualification for the World cup, who would bet against Rickie Lambert once again being the hero.
A month ago Rickie Lambert was probably planning his summer holiday for 2014, somewhere hot where he could watch the World Cup, even a week ago he probably thought his plans might not change much, but a goal in England's win at the weekend made people sit up and take notice, now if Rickie can repeat those heroics against Ukraine, then England fans will start to realise that what the national side has been missing is pride and passion in pulling on the shirt and that it's far better to go down fighting than what they barely a whimper.
So Rickie has the chance to break his travel agents heart and fire the three lions another step towards Brazil, but more to the point he has the chance to reclaim the England team for the fans, the story just keeps on getting good written, just when you think it can't go anywhere further another chapter more incredible than the last keeps getting added.
