Morgan Rogers says he will keep trying to “get fans off their seats”, as he admitted he was flattered by comparisons to Paul Gascoigne and that his best position is that central playmaking role.
The Aston Villa forward starred in England’s emphatic 5-0 win away to Serbia, with Rogers hailing how everything just clicked because everyone knew their roles. He was key to that, especially with touches and interventions that accelerated and elevated the team’s fine forward play. His flick for England’s second goal, Noni Madueke’s soaring lift, was indicative.
