- Manager will watch his side take on San Marino
- ‘There are moments we look back on from our youth’
Gareth Southgate has talked up the romance of international football and its ability to create lifelong memories and hopes his England team can give the nation a lift at the beginning of their World Cup qualifying campaign.
The manager is expected to rest the captain, Harry Kane, in the Wembley opener against San Marino on Thursday night and play a 4-3-3 system before reverting to a back three for the trip to Albania on Sunday and the home fixture with Poland next Wednesday. Marcus Rashford and Bukayo Saka will miss the San Marino game because of injury.
