Paul Lambert backs Grant Holt for England

Norwich City boss Paul Lambert has urged England manager Roy Hodgson to select Canaries striker Grant Holt for Euro 2012.

The 31-year-old scored his 14th league goal of the season in Saturday's 3-3 draw with Arsenal, and Lambert has insisted that the powerful forward deserves a place.

"You're better asking Roy, but if you're looking at goalscoring then you have to go with that. He's been brilliant for me," Hodgson told talkSPORT.

Norwich City currently sit 13th in the Premier League table with one game remaining.
