The Three Lions will be looking for them
‘For us it is more important that we both learn and play well. That’s what we can get out of the game,” he said.
“We have to be strong because they are a good team and we are going into an environment where you have to have the personality to play. But we would also like to find out some things.
‘We are playing against a very high-level opponent in a very intimidating atmosphere. They’re the kind of evenings that have been an important part of our progress for six or seven years.
“Some guys have been through that and some haven’t, it will be great to find out more about them.
“But it is also a challenge that we have to face, we have to face these challenges and enjoy them because we have huge ambitions as a team and we still have a lot of work to do.
“What we have is a great spirit. We always have to remind ourselves that it’s all about the team and we have to show that.”
