England manager Gareth Southgate has lauded Kalvin Phillips for his 'amazing tournament' at Euro 2020.

The Leeds United midfielder started all of the Three Lions' matches, including the final loss to Italy.

"Kalvin Phillips, amazing tournament, we weren't sure we were going to have him in the week leading into the first camp," Southgate said in his post-match press conference.

"Remarkable year really in terms of trying to build something consistent. We never had the players all together until seven days before the tournament itself.

"You'd have liked to have built across the whole season but that wasn't the reality of the season we had. That should be the aim moving forward.

"In some areas of the team we have clear strength and players who were in form, in other areas we don't have quite the same amount of strength and we've had to do it differently and do it our way

"By adapting and adjusting we've managed to get to a final. Of course, you're always looking for perfection and we're always looking to improve and we must continue to do that."
