It's Reservoir Keepers: Jordan Pickford has edged ahead of Jack Butland to be England's No 1 at World Cup but there's still time for Gareth Southgate to change his mind as four goalkeepers step out at training

Four goalkeepers stride out for England’s last training session of the international get-together, looking like they are recreating the famous scene in cult film Reservoir Dogs.

And just as in Quentin Tarantino’s iconic movie, only one man will be left standing at the end as Gareth Southgate uses the last few Premier League games to decide who will be his World Cup No 1.

Jordan Pickford has edged ahead of Jack Butland in the race to take the jersey when England begin their campaign against Tunisia on 18 June.

The pair were given a game to prove their credentials to Southgate, with Pickford starting in the 1-0 win over Holland and Butland playing in Tuesday’s 1-1 draw with Italy.
