Euro 2020: Glenn Hoddle backs England star Phil Foden to START in semi-final against Denmark

Ex-England manager Glenn Hoddle believes Phil Foden should return to the England starting XI for tonight's crunch Euro 2020 semi-final against Denmark at Wembley.

Manchester City star Foden has not featured in England's last three matches, since starting the opening two games against Croatia and Scotland, with Bukayo Saka, Jack Grealish and Jadon Sancho all preferred.

But Hoddle, who played in four major tournaments for his country and coached the national team at the 1998 World Cup, has backed the 21-year-old to be involved from the off - but insists that should be the only change from the side who thrashed Ukraine in the quarter-finals on Saturday.
