Vardy, Shelvey and Mason make England squad for San Marino and Switzerland games

Jamie Vardy, Jonjo Shelvey and Ryan Mason earn England call-up

JAMIE VARDY has been named in England's 22-man squad for the Euro 2016 qualifying double-header against San Marino and Switzerland.

The Leicester striker in included by manager Roy Hodgson despite his recent fine for using racist language - with Swansea midfielder Jonjo Shelvey in the squad almost three years after his one and only cap to date.
Hodgson rewarded Vardy for his impressive form at the end of last season by calling him up to the England squad for the first time.
The 28-year-old came off the bench to make his international debut in England's 0-0 draw against the Republic of Ireland in June and has scored two Premier League goals so far this season.
Shelvey has also been selected having started the season well and featured in Swansea's 2-1 win over Manchester United at the Liberty Stadium on Sunday.

This latest squad shows we are working a good number of players

Roy Hodgson

Tottenham's Ryan Mason is another midfield player who will be looking to add to his solitary cap as Hodgson lauded the strength in depth at this disposal.
"On this occasion we are obviously missing some players from the June matches," he said.
"However this is compensated by the fact we have players who weren't available over the summer.
"Jonjo Shelvey gets another chance as he has been very impressive since the start of the season.
