Ivan Toney names Liverpool and Man City stars in ultimate Premier League five-a-side team

Ivan Toney has described Virgil van Djik as being "too nice" after the now-England forward named his ultimate Premier League five-a-side team.

The 26-year-old has been named in Gareth Southgate's Three Lions squad for the first time ahead of two Nations League matches against Italy and Germany later this month. Toney has scored five goals and chipped in with two assists in six top-flight matches for Brentford this season - the second most combined behind Erling Haaland.

Southgate has also recalled Eric Dier to the England squad after impressing for Tottenham, while Jarrod Bowen, Mason Mount and Jack Grealish keep their place in the team despite all failing to find the net in the league this term. But Toney is one of three strikers in the squad alongside Harry Kane and Tammy Abraham - with the Brentford man keen to stake his place for his World Cup in November.
