Gareth Southgate is excited to be welcoming world-class Jude Bellingham into the camp but the England boss knows success at this summer’s Euros will need to be a collective effort.
Bellingham links up with the squad on Sunday and is sure to start in next weekend’s Group C opener against Serbia in Gelsenkirchen, but Southgate knows it is about more than just his stardust.“We’ve got a lot of good players and it is a collective thing to go and try to win this tournament. If we are relying on one person that isn’t going to be a team that wins.
It was a difficult night that came hot on the heels of an emotional build-up after Southgate confirmed the seven players cut from the 33-man training group on Thursday. Southgate has plenty to mull over before facing Serbia, but he repeated that the formation is unlikely to be among his considerations.
“But we have been on a good path without the ball against top level opponents in Belgium and Brazil . We didn’t get that right .”
