He's been put on standby for England's Euro 2008 qualifiers against Isreal and Andorra.
He plays in a championship team.
Is he as good as Leroy Lita or Emile Heskey?

Is he another English media creation? A player who scores a few goals against mediocre opposition and is already labelled a "world class" player?

You know you're growing old when you are 2 years older than a soccer player in the senior team.

"David Nugent (born 2 May 1985 in Huyton, Knowsley, Merseyside) is an English footballer, currently playing for Coca-Cola Championship side Preston North End as a striker. He lives on the Wirral.

As a youngster Nugent was released from the Liverpool academy as they described him as 'not good enough'.[citation needed] His junior career got back on track at Bury, joining the club's successful Youth and Centre of Excellence department. After making his debut as a substitute against Port Vale in March 2002 at the age of just 16, Nugent initially struggled to live up to his early potential, but an explosive start to the 2004-05 season saw several larger clubs take an interest."
