Bet Joe Gomez is glad he's on the same team as Jack tonight 

Can't believe Saka is starting already. Grealish had to work hard to get in the team, yet if you play for a top team, its comes easy

This is a friendly where he’s playing pretty much a reserves side. I’d take the fact that Grealish starts tonight to mean that Southgate doesn’t see him featuring much in the two “competitive” games.

Unless he plays so well Gareth simply cannot not pick him.

Southgate has told Jack to try and replicate what he does for Villa, don’t drop too deep and get into the space where he can hurt the opposition. 
 

Question is, was he lying? Has he really told him to cover LB, thus setting Jack up to fail :ph34r:

Well there is that but for me he’s playing so well for Villa that he should be being picked to start every England game. Not sure he’ll change southgate’s mind as there seems to be more to it than Jack’s performances.

Really interesting comments from Southgate about Jack: ‘told him go and hurt them from high up the pitch just like you do for Villa.’ 

Fair play Gareth, couldn’t ask for more than that.

Yes he was quite positive, interviewer said Jack got the chance because others were missing and he said he has his chance because of how he’s playing for Villa.
