Former international Shaun Wright-Phillips feels the current squad have the potential to take the final step and win a trophy
Gareth Southgate has got ‘the fans behind England again’ and increased competition in the squad, according to former Three Lions international Shaun Wright-Phillips.
Southgate led England to the World Cup semi-finals last year – the first time they had reached that stage since 1990 – and their success in Russia prompted fervent celebrations from fans back home.
The former England defender’s revolution came as he introduced a new and exciting style of football to the senior side that he had used while in charge of the Under-21s, as well as bringing talented, young players into the set-up, creating competition in his squad.
