Gareth Southgate has bemoaned the scarcity of English qualified players getting regular matches in the Premier League ahead of the final round of Euro 2020 qualification matches for his England side.
The coach pointed to the fact that less than half the players on the pitch for Sunday's match between Liverpool and Manchester City will be eligible to represent the Three Lions.
Although there has been a small uptick in the percentage of English-qualified players this season compared to last, the national team manager doesn’t think it’s enough and believes the Reds and City match is indicative of the trend.
