Phil Jagielka says Everton will benefit from Ross Barkley establishing himself in the England team.

Roy Hodgson announces his England squad for the Euro 2016 qualifier against Slovenia on Thursday and Barkley is expected to be involved which is the next step of his education according to Jagielka.

He said: "It will be nice for Ross to get away and hopefully get some game time for England, get his confidence up and kick start his season.

"We all know how much ability he has, it is nice for him to have some lessons or learning curves along the way so the manager is open to him playing at international level as most managers should do."
