Manager admits star trio tricky to all slot in straight awayCarsley insists Maguire is ‘important’ despite omission
Lee Carsley says it will be difficult for him to include Jude Bellingham, Cole Palmer and Phil Foden in the same starting XI when England take on Greece and Finland in the Nations League. But the interim manager is determined to find a creative solution in the longer term to have them play together.
Carsley was able to name all three in his squad for next Thursday’s Wembley match against Greece and the visit to Finland three days later, having been without them in September when England beat the Republic of Ireland in Dublin and Finland at Wembley. Bellingham and Palmer were injured; Foden was ill.
