England 's players held a crisis meeting without manager Gareth Southgate ahead of their morale-boosting 3-3 draw at home to Germany on Monday - and the Three Lions boss is all for it.
Coming from 2-0 down to avoid losing their third successive game thanks to goals from Luke Shaw, Mason Mount and Harry Kane, England took a step towards remedying their abysmal run of form and responded to mounting pressure in the lead-up to this winter's World Cup.
Having already been relegated to the second tier of the Nations League last week following a limp 1-0 loss away to Italy, Southgate's stars got together at St George's Park for an honest sit-down without their under-fire manager.
