Luke Shaw "still shocked" to be in England's World Cup squad

Luke Shaw has admitted that he is "still shocked" by his inclusion in England's squad for this summer's World Cup.

The 18-year-old Southampton defender is the youngest player included in Roy Hodgson's side for the Brazil tournament.

Shaw told Sky Sports News: "I seriously can't believe it still. When I found out Ashley Cole wasn't going I had that thought it could be me going but I didn't want to over-think saying 'I am definitely going' because I didn't receive anything that night.

"When the squad came out the next afternoon me and my family sat there thinking 'I'm 18 and I'm going to a World Cup'. Four years ago I was sat at home watching it on my sofa. It is going to be so weird.

"I am still shocked that I am actually going. You always had that thought in your head that you might be picked because Roy was watching a lot of our games, not just for me of course. But I wasn't expecting it. I thought I might be in the 30-man squad so to represent my country at a World Cup when I am only 18 is the best feeling in the world and I want more of it."

Shaw is one of three Southampton players named in the squad.
