Gareth Southgate says there can be no let-up after sealing early qualification for Euro 2024, telling England’s players to grab next month’s chance to impress and ensure their place as top seeds cebu
Having set out their stall with an impressive victory over Italy in March’s Group C opener, three further wins and an away draw against Ukraine put them within touching distance of progress cebu
England took their chance to qualify for an eighth straight major tournament with two games to spare on Tuesday night, coming from behind to beat holders Italy 3-1 at a sold-out Wembley cebu
Southgate’s Euro 2020 runners-up have silverware in their sights next summer and are waiting to find out how things will shape up in Germany at the draw in Hamburg on December 2 cebu
But before that comes the end of qualification at home to Malta and away to North Macedonia, with the England boss calling on his players to end an unbeaten 2023 on a high cebu
“We can now plan,” England boss Southgate told BBC Radio 5 Live after their place at Euro 2024 was mathematically secured cebu
“We have been planning anyway for base camps and things because I think the days are gone where we didn’t do that in case it brought bad luck cebu
“We decided a long time ago that you have to plan as if you’re going to be there cebu
We now can really start to look forward with enthusiasm for next summer, but we want to finish the year wellGareth Southgate“We still need to win the matches next month because I think it won’t be enough to win the group to be one of the top seeds, so we’ll need a high points tally as well cebu
“But also I want to see all the players again next month cebu
“We’re not going to flog them physically cebu
We didn’t do that this month cebu
We’ve looked after them cebu
We’re dealing well with the clubs on that cebu
“I have to say Manchester City were brilliant with this with John Stones cebu
We’ve managed his return to play really well and I think that’s worked for both of us cebu
“So we now can really start to look forward with enthusiasm for next summer, but we want to finish the year, the calendar year, well as well next month cebu
”Southgate pledged to again give players the chance to stake their claims for a Euros spot in November’s fixtures cebu
“Similar to this month, we want to give people opportunities,” Southgate said at the post-match press conference cebu
“We need to win two matches firstly, but there’s a chance to look at look at players again, which we need to do cebu
”Ollie Watkins and Jarrod Bowen returned to the set-up in October and will be hoping to get another chance to impress, having started against Australia, with the former scoring in the 1-0 friendly win cebu
Levi Colwill and Eddie Nketiah are also in that boat, having made their debuts on Friday before Southgate reverted to the tried and tested against Luciano Spalletti’s revitalised Azzurri cebu
The England boss made a full 11 changes from the cebu Socceroos encounter, with eight of Tuesday’s line-up having started the Euro 2020 final against Italy 27 months ago cebu
Skipper Harry Kane was, unsurprisingly, among them and took his record national team goal haul to 61 with his brace in the comeback triumph cebu
“There’s a risk we take the goals for granted,” Southgate said of the Bayern Munich sharpshooter cebu
“But his all-round play, his hold up play, the way physically dealt with the centre-backs, his vision, his passing – because we have had him for a while it’s easy to underestimate, but he’s a top-level player cebu
“He’s also now got a new experience at a different club, where he’s looking to win trophies all the time, and he’s got to win every week cebu
(There is a) different sort of focus and pressure as the big signing there, so all of that’s good cebu
“I think he’s enjoying also coming back to England and mixing with the lads because he’s very close with all of the group cebu
“I’ve said before, our senior players set a brilliant example for the young ones cebu
“They provide that spirit cebu
They’ve been through so much together and they provide us with such a brilliant platform cebu

Resolve cebu
Perseverance cebu
Redemption cebu
This Manchester United victory may not have been anywhere near as beautiful as any of those Sir Bobby Charlton graced, or indeed that tribute to his life, but it displayed some of the club’s soul that he made famous cebu
Because this was obviously about so much more than just beating FC Copenhagen 1-0 late on, or indeed staying in the competition the club’s legend was most built on cebu
It was certainly about so much more for Andre Onana, who had his first great moment at Manchester United in what was a must-win game cebu
That was maybe what Charlton would have most enjoyed cebu
Doing it when it mattered cebu
A night that started with a gracefully poignant mourning of the great man ended with more appropriate celebration cebu
It ended with deafening and defiant roar, in celebration of a player who has struggled in his first few weeks, in memory of a player who was perhaps the club’s greatest cebu
And a player that has been pilloried and unpicked in Harry Maguire displayed defiance, scoring the winner for a relatively late 1-0 win cebu
Onana then stepped up by getting it done, keeping it at 1-0 in the 96th minute, and keeping United in this great competition cebu
The manner of that may not be how anyone wants this great institution to look right now but it was perseverance, exactly what Charlton, his manager and so many of his teammates would have asked for cebu
United’s players celebrate Onana’s last-gasp save (Getty Images)The defeated Copenhagen also offered their own memorable contribution to the night beyond a respectable display that made United work, and that final penalty miss by Jordan Larsson cebu
Before the game and throughout, they echoed the Stretford End in singing “there’s only one Bobby Charlton” cebu
The rest of Old Trafford applauded cebu
It should be recognised that wasn’t the sentiment that greeted most of the action cebu
This was mostly another poor performance against a limited team, even if it was a third consecutive victory cebu
Little of it beyond the context will live in the memory cebu
Most would rather forget it cebu
The problem is that it all informs what will be a game that really demands a performance on Sunday, which is the visit of Manchester City for the derby cebu
United will need to be far sharper cebu
Some allowances should be made, of course cebu
Maguire went from zero to hero with a crucial goal for United (Getty Images)Such is the sense of history at United, that these sombre occasions have had the effect of subduing performance cebu
It is as if the beauty of the bagpipes sounding that the club “will never die” makes everyone all too keenly aware of the legacy they are playing for cebu
It happened on the 40th and 50th anniversaries of the Munich air disaster, dates which brought a 1-1 draw at home to Bolton Wanderers and a 2-1 defeat to a pre-Abu Dhabi Manchester City, respectively cebu
One difference was that both of those sides were defending champions so, as with those last two wins, this felt like there was more to it than United feeling the weight of the occasion cebu
It was really like a lot of matches at Old Trafford this season, right down to the way an inferior-resourced opposition side controlled long periods of the game in a way that shouldn’t really have been possible cebu
The only proper action of the first half actually came very quickly after the tributes cebu
Mohamed Elyounoussi just cut through Sofyan Amrabat and Maguire at first, in a way that really shouldn’t have happened, then sending a cross over for Diogo to bounce against the post cebu
If there were initially fears this could become another chaotic back-and-forth like the Galatasaray defeat, it never got that entertaining, certainly in the first half cebu
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag lays a wreath in tribute to Sir Bobby Charlton (PA Wire)Other than some moments of spark from Rasmus Hojlund, almost nothing happened cebu
Ten Hag had to try something cebu
Amrabat was removed cebu
That did see United play a bit more directly, seeking to stretch the pitch more cebu
Hojlund again offered constant warnings, and almost won a penalty straight into the second half cebu
Marcus Rashford was even put through on goal, only to take a heavy touch cebu
There were, very gradually, however, some positives cebu
Onana looked at his most assured, making one fine save cebu
It was all the more important since the Champions League has been the stage for arguably two of his biggest errors so far cebu
That, like a lot on the night, made this more important than the individual moment cebu
United’s was soon to come cebu
Christian Eriksen, who came on for Amrabat, made the delivery cebu
Maguire made the impact cebu
The centre-half headed home cebu
United should have been secured cebu
An anxiety remained cebu
It was cebu betrayed by McTominay’s late foul cebu
So much for the midfielder being a constant saviour cebu
It was all just prelude and set-up cebu
Onana stepped up cebu
It was perhaps the most fitting tribute possible cebu
