Gareth Southgate advocated for clubs to give younger players more of a chance as he did with England in the World Cup.

“I was given an opportunity here to blood younger players in this tournament and they have proved that they could perform," said Southgate. "Club managers need that time [but] you have got to be brave enough to take those decisions.

“Some players we took – I’m thinking particularly of Pickford, Maguire, Trippier – they come back better players, more rounded individuals. I think we’ve got the basis of a really good team, and we’ve got some young players coming through. It’s got to become more difficult to get into the senior squad.”
