Southgate: Foden is special... that's why we must protect him

The 21-year-old (right) produced a masterclass in the 5-0 win over Andorra that moved England a step closer towards Qatar. But Southgate is determined not to overburden the playmaker, who endured a frustrating Euros when expected to be one of the breakout performers.

“The only thing I am loath to do is put any pressure on him,” said the England manager. “We’ve known since 15, 16 what might be possible and we are seeing that. His evolution at his club has been perfect. We know what is possible. The fascinating part is what that role might be and it could be any one of a number, frankly, because he’s got the ability to play in many different positions.”

Has this legend of the London restaurant scene lost its cool?

Once upon a time —not so long ago, less than a decade — being a D&D restaurant meant something. Back then, Le Pont de la Tour and Coq d’ Argent were governed by swathes of the most moneyed City regulars; Sartoria offered a hangout on Savile Row as stylish as any of its neighbouring tailors; and Quaglino’s, until recently, was the place mere mortals were most likely to bump into Prince Harry or Mick Jagger.
