The Hull defender has enjoyed an impressive start to the season, and believes that he still may get the call to play for England.
"There's not the Rio [Ferdinand]s, there's not the John Terrys, there's not the Sol Campbells, Ledley Kings of old so I think the door will be open," he said.
"But time is ticking and I'm not sure what direction England are looking.
"Are they looking to maybe bring the younger Englishmen through so they can be ready for the tournament or are they going to pick whoever is good enough whether they're old or young?
"I remain hopeful, but for me it's just about doing as well as I can for Hull and anything else is a bonus".
The 31-year-old has made the most interceptions, blocks and clearances in Europe's top five leagues - England, Spain, Germany, Italy and France - but Davies has playd down the importance of the statistics.
"I like the idea of having a decent contribution to the stats," he added.
"But to say you're the best defender in Europe based on stats - I don't buy into it because if you're playing for Hull you're going to have a lot more blocking, interceptions, tackles, heading and clearing to do than you are if you play for Man City or Arsenal".
Should England call-up Curtis Davies?
