Speaking following his International call-up to the England squad, Everton defender Phil Jagielka has revealed details of the moment he first discovered of his inclusion in Fabio Capellos squad to face USA at Wembley, and then travel to Trinidad and Tobago for England's final match of the season four days later.
Jagielka: "I went out with my family for a meal after the game and when I checked my phone afterwards there were a stack of messages waiting, The first one I read was from Ossie saying ‘congratulations, you’re in the England squad"
"Normally when you get something like that from him it means he’s winding you up. But the next one I had was from a secretary at the FA to tell me I had been called up. Naturally, I was over the moon and it’s put the gloss on a great year"
