Upson, in line to become the new Hammers skipper, will continue to deputise for the injured Rio Ferdinand for England against Andorra tomorrow night.
But he fears his lack of big-match experience will count against him when it comes to claiming a place in Fabio Capello’s starting line-up in South Africa next year.
And that confession will come as a major blow to West Ham boss Gianfranco Zola on the day the club were sold to new owners CB Holdings.
