Reading defender Nicky Shorey says he is more worried about keeping his club in the Premier League than getting his England place back.

Shorey has not been included of Fabio Capello's first two England squads after being involved under former boss Steve McClaren, but the full-back says securing Premier League safety is his main priority at present.

"Of course, you're always disappointed, but not majorly. At this moment in time, I've got bigger concerns in trying to stay in this division with Reading," said Shorey.

"It's an honour to represent your country and hopefully I'll do it again in the future."
