Burnley defender Michael Keane deserves his first England call-up and will only develop further within an international setting, according to former Three Lions captain Terry Butcher. The 23-year-old was drafted into Gareth Southgates 23-man squad for the World Cup qualifiers against Malta and Slovenia after Stoke defender Glen Johnson was forced to withdraw because of injury. Keane, who made 16 appearances under Southgate for England U21s, has been a standout performer for newly promoted Burnley this season and Butcher is convinced the former Manchester United academy graduate will only grow into a better player from the experience. Its good and he deserves it, Butcher told Sky Sports Now. Its interesting because if you look at the stats, he has only made five tackles this season and he has won all of them. But it does show you the state of the game, its more balletic, playing balls in front of you and not necessarily going to ground.Hes done very well, hes a big boy, a handful and coming into the England squad will only help him as its another step up. Theres great company, great coaching and great media spotlight, its what you want. Keane has been an ever-present for Burnley so far this season, scoring in the 2-0 win over Watford Theres some experienced England players ahead of him in that squad, theres no doubt about that.When I came into the squad, you look around and think I am just happy to be here. I am sure hell just be glad to get on the training field and get around the players in the hotel. It will add to his experience and then it makes you more determined to get into the starting XI when it comes around. Watch NOW TV Watch Sky Sports for just £6.99. No contract. But Ill be very surprised if Gareth does call him up to play as hes got a settled back four and goalkeeper already there, its what happens in front of that back four that really matters.Southgate, who was appointed as Englands interim manager last week following the departure of Sam Allardyce, will take charge of his first training session on Tuesday ahead of Saturdays match against Malta at Wembley. England then face Slovenia on Tuesday in Ljubljana, with Southgate also taking charge of the World Cup qualifier against Scotland on November 11 and the friendly with Spain on November 15. Keane replaces Stoke defender Glen Johnson in Englands 23-man squad With a busy schedule ahead for England, Butcher believes Southgate is facing a tough task, citing the players attitude and the Wayne Rooney conundrum as possible issues for him. Well, hes got four games, which is good and they are qualifiers where he has to get points and win matches, Butcher added. I was confident a few months ago that England would get points from these matches, but I am not so sure now, it really depends on the attitude of the players. Gareth Southgate will take charge of England for the next four matches, starting against Malta on Saturday I saw England play in Slovakia and theyve got the Wayne Rooney conundrum. I am sure Gareth would like to come in to a more settled situation, but as a caretaker manager its never a settled situation as something has normally happened, which it has. Hes got good experience behind him and hell know what to do. Its all down to how the players will react. Malta is a given, thats a comfortable three points, but Slovenia away thats a different kettle of fish.You can watch Englands tour of Bangladesh, plus Premier League football and the Japan Grand Prix on Sky Sports.
