As part of the Football League's youth development set-up, former Mansfield Town star Phil Stant was proud to see a young England open their World Cup with victory last night.
But Stant believes the country still lacks the true world class star it needs and that a lack of first team openings for players at the top level will also always hamper England’s hopes of glory.
It took a late Harry Kane header to give England a 2-1 win over Tunisia last night, but Stant said: “It doesn’t matter how you get it. “We missed so many chances and you can go on about VAR as much as you want, but I’m not bothered now – we got the points.”
