Manchester United defender Patrice Evra feels England are capable of going a long way in the Euros.

Evra believes that Roy Hodgson, who was only appointed England coach just over a month ago, could have a similar impact to the one Roberto Di Matteo enjoyed with Chelsea.

He said: "I respect every player in that England squad. A lot of people say that maybe the new manager doesn't know the players well enough but take the example of Roberto Di Matteo at Chelsea.

"He came in and won the Champions League. England have not won anything for a long time but they will be ready and will fight hard. I don't really look at the players missing and injured because they will be replaced by very good players."
