Everton's Jagielka making late England Euros pitch

Eveton defender Phil Jagielka has his eyes set on England's Euros squad.

The centre-half has been a rock at the back for Everton in recent weeks but missed his country's last outing, a 3-2 defeat against Holland in February, on the back of a two-month lay off with a knee problem.

Jagielka told evertontv: "We don't know what the squad is yet and you've got to keep going until the end of the season. There's no foot off the gas.

"You've got to try to give the manager, obviously Roy Hodgson now, a headache as to who's going to go in his squad, and hopefully I've played well enough in the last few weeks at least to be up there for a shout."
