Jagielka worry for England

England defender Phil Jagielka says he is not fully fit after playing just two Premier League matches since February, reports BBC Sport. The 31-year-old featured in Everton's final two games of the season at the start of May after missing 11 matches with a hamstring injury. <> And the Toffees captain admits he needs to build up his match fitness in England's pre-tournament friendlies.

"I could do with these couple of games before the World Cup just to sharpen up," he said.
