Jack Grealish has pointed out the wealth of attacking options at Gareth Southgate's disposal as the reason why Phil Foden has seen little action in the World Cup so far.
The England manager has come in for a heap of criticism over the last couple of days after he didn't introduce Foden off the bench during his side's drab, goalless draw with the United States on Friday. Southgate explained afterwards that he didn't bring Foden on in a central attacking position as he hasn't been playing there for Manchester City much recently.
Many have responded by arguing that Foden could have come on in the attack but instead, Southgate opted to start Bukayo Saka and Raheem Sterling and then brought Grealish and Marcus Rashford on from the bench. It has left Foden on just 19 minutes of World Cup action so far.
