BBC'He has been exceptional every time'
Everton's Jordan Pickford is the "kind of goalkeeper" England "need", ex-England keeper Joe Hart has said. The 30-year-old, who is playing in his fourth consecutive major tournament for his nation, made some vital saves in England's opening 1-0 win over Serbia at Euro 2024 on Sunday. Pickford equalled Peter Shilton's record of 10 clean sheets for the Three Lions at major tournaments.
BBC'They know what their role is at the moment'
West Ham's Jarrod Bowen and Chelsea's Conor Gallagher are "growing into" their England roles, according to former Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart. The two midfielders were second-half substitutes in Sunday's 1-0 win over Serbia at Euro 2024, coming on at a time when Gareth Southgate's side were struggling to match Serbia, and both made instant impacts. Gallagher added energy and intensity into the centre of the pitch, while Bowen created a chance for Harry Kane to score England's second goal, only for the captain to be denied by a superb save from Predrag Rajkovic.
