'Southgate is a brilliant man-manager' - Grealish insists he has a 'great relationship with England boss

The Aston Villa midfielder has dismissed talk of any discord between him and his international coach as the Three Lions' Euro 2020 journey continues

Gareth Southgate is a "brilliant man-manager", according to Jack Grealish, who has insisted that he has a "great relationship" with the England boss.

Grealish has played a key role in England's run to the Euro 2020 quarter-finals, with his latest appearance from the bench inspiring Southgate's side to a 2-0 victory over Germany in the Round of 16.

The Aston Villa star is now pushing for a start against Ukraine in Rome on Saturday, and has talked up Southgate's managerial credentials ahead of that huge last-eight encounter.
