England manager Gareth Southgate has told his players to get their heads out of the clouds.

With both the semis and finals scheduled to be at Wembley next summer, England have a rare opportunity to replicate the 1966 World Cup win, yet the team seem far off that standard after the 2-1 defeat to the Czech Republic, with Southgate now contemplating at tactical change and returning to a back three.

Southgate said: "It's not for me to tell the public not to dream and not to have hope. I think internally, we have to be different and be realistic and we haven't changed our tone on that at all.

"We know our strengths and we know the areas we have to improve upon. We've talked about it throughout the week and we've had evidence of it tonight. So, I don't think any of us within the camp are under any illusions. To be a really top team, with players with experience of winning the biggest matches, we're still some way from that."
