Everton midfielder Rodwell eyeing England call

Everton midfielder Jack Rodwell admits he's eyeing an eventual England call.

This season, Rodwell has seen his progress stall due to injury.

On an England call, he told Absolute Radio: "I hope so, you know, it's pretty much a case of getting regular first team football now. You know, this season's not been quite how I imagined it with injuries and stuff, but hopefully next season I can put that right."

Asked where he most liked to play, Rodwell added: "Best position? I don't really know myself. I think I've played centre-half all my life so I'm natural there, but centre-mid is a really good position for me, box to box, you know, I like to get forward and back and use my energy."

  This Saturday Absolute Radio's Rock 'N' Roll Football Live travels to Goodison Park for their feature game Everton v Man City. You can tune in every Saturday on Absolute Radio extra - on DAB Digital Radio, 1215AM and online in the UK. Tune in for the full Jack Rodwell interview. For more go to absoluteradio.co.uk/football.
