Kyle Walker has credited Gareth Southgate for the atmosphere he has created within the England squad, saying it is like "club football". Southgate took charge of England in September 2016, and has since led his country to the World Cup in Russia next year. Walker is established as one of Southgate's first-choice defenders, and he wants the players to

We're all together in the games room, playing pool, having a laugh and I think it is really bringing the squad together nicely. "When Gareth came in he has put his own stamp on it, he has in his head how he wants it to be and for us it is working. "Now it is just down to us to repay the faith that he has put into us." Walker will be hoping to travel to his first World Cup at the end of the season, having

He said: "Every team going to a World Cup is going to be decent so you won't get an easy group. "On the day, anyone can beat anyone, which we saw at the Euros. "We need to build on that experience."
