Fabian Delph can be an instrumental figure in England winning Euro 2016 , according to Aston Villa manager Tim Sherwood . Roy Hodgson called Delph into his squad for the coming matches against Lithuania and Italy , to little surprise for Sherwood having tried to sign the 25-year-old at Tottenham . ‘ Roy will stumble across a team that will win the Euros . He will , I tell you . They will win it , ’ said Sherwood . ‘ I feel we ’ ve got top young talent who will have another year ’ s football . A lot of them would play for any country across Europe . Fabian Delph was included in the latest England squad and could be a fixture in the future . Aston Villa boss Tim Sherwood says the midfielder can be part of Euro 2016 glory with his country . ‘ I ’ ve told Fabian he could be on the verge of something . There ’ s competition there but he could be a big part of it . Roy loves him. ’ Sherwood recalls a chance meeting with Delph ’ s representative while he was in charge at Spurs last season and the Villa midfielder was mulling over signing a new contract . Delph penned fresh terms in January . ‘ I spoke to his agent in London and told him that if I was still in charge at Tottenham , I ’ d definitely want him to come . I tried my best . He ’ d cost too much money now , but he would have been a bargain then . ‘ He ’ s got a change of pace and a hammer of a left foot . I think he ’ s got the ability to drop his shoulder and go past people . I wouldn ’ t want him to do that to me . ‘ Some players you don ’ t mind playing against and then there ’ s others like ( Paul ) Gascoigne who can put you on your arse – just because he will face you up and want to make you look stupid . Gazza used to do it with tricks but Fabian has got more pace and drive. ’ Deph has got more 'pace and drive ' than Paul Gascoigne , according to Sherwood . The 25-year-old unleashes a strike past the West Brom defence during a FA Cup victory earlier this month .
