These are great times for England, says Phil Foden
Phil Foden believes England are enjoying “great times” and is relishing being among a wealth of attacking options, even if they mean he is not a certain starter at Euro 2024. The Manchester City forward started England’s 3-1 win over Italy at Wembley on Tuesday night as the hosts secured qualification to next summer’s finals in Germany. The Euro 2020 runners-up will no doubt be among the favourites to win the tournament after another strong showing throughout the qualifying campaign. “These are definitely great times for England,” said Foden. “We’ve reached a final now and we want to keep doing that. We’ve had a taste for it and we want to be in the big games and the big occasions and we’ve got experience on the pitch to do that so we are enjoying it. “I thought it was a brilliant performance. I thought our defensive work was really good. When you come up against the likes of Italy you’ve got to defend sometimes because they have a great quality. “We showed that throughout the game, not just attacking, but the defending side as well so I’m delighted with the result. That’s where we want to be, beating these big teams so we are really happy.” A treble-winner with City last season, Foden now has 29 senior England caps but is not an automatic starter for his country. We've reached a final now and we want to keep doing that. We've had a taste for it and we want to be in the big games Phil Foden Boss Gareth Southgate has plenty of attacking talent at his disposal, with Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka, who missed this international break with a foot injury, arguably ahead of Foden in the current pecking order. “Bukayo is a quality player, every time he puts on an England shirt he is at least a seven out of 10,” Foden told BBC Radio 5Live. “He is a fantastic player and it’s exciting, because we’ve still got big players to come back and help us as well. “So it shows the depth of the squad and, if I’m not starting, I want to come on and try and change the game, so I’m here to help the team as best as I can.” Read More England player ratings as Marcus Rashford shines but Kalvin Phillips struggles in Italy comeback England supporters who boo Jordan Henderson are ‘not proper fans’, says Harry Maguire England reveal the flaws of Italy’s high-risk Spallettiball South Africa’s Handre Pollard expecting to face ‘ruthless’ England in semi-final Leeds sign Salford duo Brodie Croft and Andy Ackers on three-year deals Jude Bellingham’s latest masterclass has got the whole world talking
