McNeil Gets England Call

Winger Dwight McNeil has earned his first call-up to the England Under-20 squad after lighting up the Premier League.

The Clarets' teenager - who has started Burnley's last 11 top-flight games - trained with the squad last October as a stand-by player.

And he has now been officially selected for the first time for up-coming games against Poland and Portugal.

McNeil has been an instumental part of Sean Dyche's side since the turn of the year, notching a goal against West Ham at Turf Moor and four assists in the Premier League.

Paul Simpson's England side will face Poland at St.
