Sam Johnstone: Goalkeeper had 'sweaty palms' when he joined up with England

West Bromwich Albion goalkeeper Sam Johnstone says he had "sweaty palms" when he joined up with the England squad at St George's Park.

The 27-year-old has represented England at youth levels but his last games were for the under-20s in 2013.

"I was so excited, even though I knew a lot of the lads and a lot of the staff," he said.

"I've not been to St George's for a few years in an England squad. This is the senior team, it is the biggest one."

He added: "The lads are great and the staff are great and I have settled in straight away.
