The progress of Grealish, Walker, Stones and Foden at Manchester City has earned the England manager’s gratitude

When Southgate first began to pick Grealish at the start of the 2020-21 season, the winger was not exactly known for tracking back. Not any more. Not after his move to City from Aston Villa in 2021, not after two seasons of Guardiola, this one the breakout, which has the potential to end in treble glory.
