Senderos happy for Villa pal Delph over England call

Aston Villa defender Philippe Senderos says teammate Fabian Delph deserves his England call.

Delph is with Roy Hodgson's squad ahead of Monday's Euro 2016 tie in Switzerland having made a 69th-minute debut substitute appearance for Jack Wilshire at Wembley against Norway.

"He's been brilliant, not only this season but over the last few seasons," said 29-year-old Senderos.

"Now he really deserves his place in the squad. He will bring his energy, his power, his will to move forward all the time. He is a very positive player to have around."
