Burnley goalkeeper Nick Pope is disappointed at missing out on England selection again but stressed his 'massive respect' for Gareth Southgate and that he knows the 'door is not closed'.
Southgate's squad for the World Cup qualifiers against Albania and San Marino was announced on Thursday, with Pope omitted while Jordan Pickford, Aaron Ramsdale and Sam Johnstone got the nod - as was the case last month.
Pope, holder of seven caps, had previously returned to the squad for England's games in September, having sat out their Euro 2020 campaign over the summer after undergoing knee surgery.
