He claimed that the captain of Manchester United, Harry Maguire, suffered an injury in the final moments of the match against Germany. Maguire was held accountable for two of Germany’s goals.

At the press conference following the game, Southgate was asked about Rashford. He responded,

“We would be foolish not to keep an open mind to especially players that have worked with us before, who we know and know us and can slot in pretty comfortably.

“So those guys in particular [that have been part of previous squads] we’re monitoring closely.

“But we’ve also got to keep an open mind on others because in certain positions we don’t have a lot of depth and we’ve still got to be analysing if there’s someone who can come in and improve the squad that we’ve got.”

“John Stones is feeling something with his hamstring and I think Harry is feeling something a little bit as well,” revealed the England boss.
