Gareth Southgate has already had to make changes to his squad this week following injuries to Jude Bellingham, Levi Colwill, James Maddison, Callum Wilson and Lewis Dunk.<\/p>\n<p>Cole Palmer, Ezri Konsa and Rico Lewis have replaced the latter three and joined up with their compatriots at St George&#8217;s Park on Monday. Rashford and Phillips weren&#8217;t present though as England announced the pair will join up with the squad later this week.<\/p>\n<p>The statement read: &#8220;Marcus Rashford and Kalvin Phillips will meet up later this week owing to personal matters.&#8221; Rashford has been a regular feature in Southgate&#8217;s squad when fit, but he may need to pick up some form heading into the European Championships next summer to be sure of a starting spot.<\/p>\n<p>Phillips has also been called up to the squad regularly, despite a lack of minutes at club level with Manchester City.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/5065337.jpg?r=1699966128664\"><\/p>\n<p>Southgate refused to be drawn into Rashford&#8217;s slump in form for United, insisting it&#8217;s up to the striker to turn his fortune around. The England boss said: \u201cIn the end \u2013 and respectfully \u2013 with the big bucks comes the big pressure. He is the guy that got all the goals last year.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Of course, here [with England] we\u2019ve been able to share the goals around and maybe there\u2019s less emphasis on just one person, which I think helps them all \u2013 I\u2019m sure even for Harry [Kane], he\u2019s not thinking I\u2019ve got to be the one to score. Maybe with Rasmus Hojlund scoring now at United that will help, but you know over a period of time Marcus has scored goals, so that\u2019s going to happen again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> <strong> Don&#8217;t miss&#8230; <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Sir Jim Ratcliffe questioned by Ferdinand as Man Utd legend concerned about plan[LATEST] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Getafe &#8216;very happy&#8217; with Mason Greenwood as Man Utd loanee shines in Spain[LATEST] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Cole Palmer risks wrath of Man City supporters as Chelsea star makes revelation[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Support fearless journalism<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Read The Daily Express online, advert free<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Get super-fast page loading<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p>Rashford scored 30 goals in all competitions last season, but he&#8217;s found the net just once this campaign. Erik ten Hag has backed his attacker to rediscover his best form and is prepared to stand with him.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think he&#8217;s not happy, we are not happy. We have expectations, he has high expectations of himself,&#8221; Ten Hag said about Rashford&#8217;s start to this season,&#8221; he said. &#8220;At this moment, he is not in his best form. But I know he will be back. I know when the team is playing better, he will play better, he will score goals. I am confident of that.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This season he will improve and score goals, he&#8217;s totally in the team and aware on everything. He will be back on track. That can happen very quickly. Sometimes you need only one game, I&#8217;m sure he will get there.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/1834841\/England-duo-Marcus-Rashford-Kalvin-Phillips-personal-matters\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>England have announced that both Marcus Rashford and Kalvin Phillips will join up with the squad later this week due <span class=\"more-text\">&hellip;<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":299336,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 -
