Southampton legend Matt Le Tissier has questioned the quality of the England squad following Tottenham midfielder Eric Dier's call-up for the upcoming friendlies against Spain and France.

Dier is in fine form for his club this season and has scored two goals in ten league appearances for Spurs.

"It just goes to show that it doesn't take too much of an upturn in form to get you a place in the squad right now," Le Tissier told Sky Sports.

"If you're an Englishman playing decent football in the Premier League then you've got a chance.

"Eric Dier has only just started playing in that position, Fabian Delph has barely played Premier League football this season, so the competition isn't exactly fierce.

"I heard on the radio that the highest scoring players in England's squad behind Wayne Rooney are Gary Cahill and Harry Kane with three goals, so we're clearly relying on Rooney a lot."
