    You've got to give the manager great credit for creating such a great team spirit.

    We had a great team spirit in Euro 96 and I think Gareth has borrowed some of that.

    There seems to be a buzz and happy feeling in the England squad. We haven't always had that with England teams.

    It's a team game. There's been many times in my career where I'm gutted to not be involved for my club. But when you get called up to the Euros, even if you're not playing, you're contributing to the team.

    You need that positive attitude in the camp.

  5. 'Pickford's communication integral'published at 16:56 British Summer Time 3 July 2021

    At the back for England it starts with Pickford's communication. The communication from the goalkeeper is integral.

    Pickford appears to be a very good talker.

    Then you have the roles of Rice and Phillips, they're so industrial. But a lot of people don't see the passing lanes they cut off. A drop of a shoulder is vital, a lot of people don't see that.

    Plenty of chat about best England kits but what about worst?

    What had David Seaman done to be made to wear this skittles-esque monstrosity?

    I'm aware of Gareth's pain. I've missed a penalty against Sunderland, that's nowhere near as big but it struck a cord with me.

    I've never felt anybody on the team blamed Gareth. I'll never hold anything against Gareth, we should've won the game in 90 minutes or extra time.

    It's only going to get bigger if England get this result tonight. They think they've sampled something special, just wait until they get to a semi-final.

    Fave England kit? '82 home shirt. I doubt it will ever be bettered. Keegan in that shirt with a band in his hair, iconic doesn't even start to explain it.

    Gordon Sinclair - Halifax

    Euro 96 home will always be the most nostalgic but I loved both our kits at the 2010 World Cup even though I initially thought the home shirt looked more like a PE kit!

    I would be so excited [if I were in England's shoes]. What an opportunity for this young, exciting team. They're on the brink of something very special. I really hope the occasion doesn't get to them.

    We've got a fantastic draw but we can't get carried away. I'll say one word, Iceland.

    These next seven days could be life changing for these players.
