LISTEN: Man Utd's Young covets England return

Ashley Young has not played for England since 2013 but he feels his recent form warrants a re-call.

The winger, 29, has strung together some fine performances for Manchester United with Louis van Gaal giving him plenty more opportunities of late.

Young last suited up for the Three Lions when coming on as a second-half substitute in the 0-0 with Ukraine in World Cup qualifying in Kyiv in September 2013 but is hoping he is given another chance when Roy Hodgson names his next squad on Thursday.

England meet Lithuania at Wembley in Euro2016 qualifying on March 27 before taking on Italy in a friendly in Turin four days later and United's Young wants to be a part of it.
