Gareth Southgate has dropped a major hint that he is ready to pick Phil Foden after insisting he will “play an important part” in England’s World Cup campaign.
There has been a huge clamour for Manchester City star Foden to start against Wales tomorrow night after he was left on the bench for the goalless draw with the United States.
Three Lions boss Southgate insisted he has no issues with Foden and said he will rely on him as England try to progress through the tournament. Southgate, in an interview with ITV, said: “We love Phil, he is a super player. He was into the first game, we decided not to put him into the second. But he is going to play an important part in this tournament for us, there is no question about that.
