This should come as a great boost in confidence for young Trafford but before you outraged England "fans" get your knickers in a twist he won't be in the next squad, he is available in this break to sit on the bench rather than GS call another keeper in at late notice.

Sorry but anybody who says that doesn't understand the game at all. You would have forwards just sat there in front of goal and defenders wouldn't push up field due to forwards running in behind.
