Phil Foden will 'shine' at the World Cup if given the chance to do so, says England and Manchester City team-mate Kalvin Phillips

Phil Foden will 'shine' at the World Cup if given the chance to do so, according to England and Manchester City team-mate Kalvin Phillips.

There was widespread clamour for Foden to be introduced off the bench as England were held to a drab 0-0 draw in Friday's Group B meeting with the United States.

Manager Gareth Southgate was criticised for not utilising the 22-year-old as his side struggled to create chances at the Al Bayt Stadium.

Victory over the USA would have sent England through into the round of 16 but they could not find a breakthrough, only intensifying the calls for Foden to start Tuesday's clash against Wales.
