Gareth Southgate has cautioned against heaping pressure on Phil Foden and warned it would be a risk to pin England’s hopes of winning the World Cup on one player.
Southgate, who does not want to rest Harry Kane against Wales on Tuesday night, was accused of wasting Foden’s talent after not using him in England’s 0-0 draw with the USA. He has fired back at his critics by insisting he loves the Manchester City player. At the same time the head coach is wary of overhyping the 22-year-old, even though he is considering starting him when his side look to win Group B by beating Wales.
