Watford duo Scott Loach and Tom Cleverley have been named in the England Under-21 squad to face Portugal and Lithuania. Stuart Pearce's side face the Portuguese at Wembley on November 14 and Lithuania three days later in the European Championship qualifying double header. Loach has become Pearce's first-choice goalkeeper and has made nine appearances while Manchester United loanee Cleverley will be looking to add to his three caps. Both featured in the thrilling 6-3 victory over Macedonia last month.
