Everton boss David Moyes says Leon Osman was 'embarrassed' by his England selection.

Osman is being celebrated on Merseyside after a first England call at the age of 31.

Moyes enthused: "He has been a regular for Everton for 10 years. He is someone who might not get many caps. That's why I hope he gets one. There hasn't been a more deserving player to win a cap, in my view. He was embarrassed on when we told him he had been called up and you can imagine the ribbing he got.

"Behind that embarrassment though you can see he is extremely proud and his family are no doubt delighted. I hope it will kick him on again. He played great for us last week (at Fulham). I hope he gets a chance to somehow earn a cap."
