England avoided fresh embarrassment after their Greek tragedy as Trent Alexander-Arnold's superb free-kick inspired a 3-1 win against Finland in the Nations League on Sunday. Jack Grealish, who was one of the stars of the game, spoke to ITV media after his side's victory.
One of Carsley's more successful decisions has been to recall Grealish after Southgate left the Manchester City winger out of the Euro 2024 squad. And Grealish, back in the team after missing the Greece game due to injury, offered a glowing review of Carsley's England credentials.
"Whatever happens with the England manager some people will always say negative stuff," he said. "I think before people were crying out for more so-called attacking players and we do it and it didn't work for one game and there are a few people moaning.
"In my honest opinion, I don't get it. It can happen in games. He's a top manager, brilliant guy and I love playing for him."
Grealish also revealed an amusing anecdote with Alexander-Arnold. "I said to Trent Alexander-Arnold ‘If you score this free-kick I’ll give you £500’ and he just slapped it in the top bins, so now I owe him," he said.
