Marc Guehi on Anthony Gordon, who was seen with a graze on his chin during training this morning: "He fell off his bike.

"The boys went out on a bike ride, I wasn't there I just heard about it.

"I was talking to him and not paying attention and when I turned around I just saw the graze on his chin. He's doing well now."

Marc Guehi on England being in the favourable side of the draw: "Everyone has seen from results in the tournament so far that there’s no real favourable side. Every opponent is tough to play against.

"We just need to remain calm. We put pressure on ourselves, but it’s a very calm and focused environment."

England defender from Marc Guehi on last 16 opponents Slovakia: "We haven't done any team analysis on them yet but we all watch the games and know they are a good side.

"They have some really good players, [Stanislav] Lobotka being one.

"I think it's going to be another tough opponent, tough challenge and we need to be ready to match what they bring."

Marc Guehi on how England can grow in confidence: "What builds confidence is togetherness, performances and the fact we haven't lost a game yet.

"We just have to control what we can control to stay focused."

England defender from Marc Guehi on whether he thought Crystal Palace team-mate Tyrick Mitchell should have earned a spot in the Euro 2024 squad: "I would have loved T to be here, I think he had a great season."

More on England's defence from Marc Guehi: "It's a collective, being able to defend really well. If we're going to go far in this tournament our defence needs to be strong.

"I'm not aware of what the critics say. As long as we keep moving forward in the right direction, we'll be OK."

England defender from Marc Guehi on whether he has had any advice or support from John Stones and Kyle Walker: "Just to be myself.

"I've relied on them and the whole team - we rely on each other - but they keep telling me to keep doing what I'm doing."

On what he thinks about Walker's ability: "Top, unbelievable player. His tenacity and leadership shows in tough moments.

"His pace definitely helps a lot in any situation. His reading of the game is fantastic but he's not just a one-trick pony, he reads the game so well too."

On whether he has spoken to Harry Maguire since the tournament started, England defender Marc Guehi said: "I haven't spoken to Harry, but he has played a big part in being here. He’s helped me on the training pitches before."

On his partnership with John Stones: "I can’t speak highly enough of him. He is an absolute dream to play with. I am just following in his footsteps.

"Just seeing them two [Stones and Maguire] play at the highest level consistently and never letting their country down has paved the way for me."

On whether the booing after the Slovenia game has been spoken about, England defender Marc Guehi said: "I don't think the team is too focused on that. We are thankful for all of the fan support because they have travelled to see us.

"It is a calm and focused camp. Everyone is just focused on the next task at hand."

On receiving praise for his performances so far, England defender Marc Guehi said: "It is nice to hear.

Manchester City defender John Stones feels Crystal Palace's Marc Guehi has really "bought into" their partnership in defence for England.

There were question marks over who would partner Stones at centre-back after Manchester United's Harry Maguire was left out of the final squad, but Guehi has stepped in seamlessly and received plenty of praise for his performances in the first two games at his first major tournament.

Speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live, Stones said 23-year-old Guehi had been "so good" and added: "For him to come in, not having felt the kind of feelings around tournament football before or these kind of games, all the different emotions that come with it that you've never experienced before, he has handled them so well in his performances.

"I said to him: 'When we're in this, whoever we're playing with, I'm your right arm, you're my left, we do this together - I've got your back.' He's bought into that.

"I believe massively, in partnerships, that you do it all together."

Former Chelsea boss Frank Lampard believes Crystal Palace and England defender Marc Guehi has "all the attributes to take him a long way".

The 23-year-old has won plaudits for his performances in England's opening three games at Euro 2024 - his first major tournament.

Guehi has impressed since moving to Palace in 2012 from the Blues, where he came through the academy and made his first-team debut as a 19-year-old in the League Cup.

"I'm delighted for him," Lampard told the Football Daily podcast. "I gave him his debut at Chelsea and he is a really polite, humble lad.

"You could see that he had all the attributes to take him a long way - particularly the personality: he wanted to do well. I liked the idea of working with him at the time because when a young kid comes through and shows that humility and wants to do well, that is an amazing thing to work with as a coach.

"But to go away and play as he did at Palace and come into an England squad with high pressure and people saying 'I'm not sure about that', his position is now the one position we are not talking about, which is an amazing achievement from him.

"He has come into this team and is doing a job and doing it really well. That is very refreshing to see."

Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham was one of the guests on today's edition of the Lions' Den, a daily broadcast from the England camp over in Germany.

Bellingham has been discussing England's last 16 tie against Slovakia:

"I think that you're always going to have tough games at this point in the tournament. I think people look at the draw and see Slovakia and think it will be an easy game. It definitely is not the case because they will be a different type of threat and will be difficult to break down.

"I think when you play nations who come at you a bit more, it's a lot more open.

"It will be an interesting game, it will be one that we're confident that we have enough to win even though we know we haven't been quite at the levels that we need to be at."
