‘England drought: Serial winners can help’ – Mings

On Friday, 16 June, England will kick off their Euro 2024 qualifiers against Malta at the Ta’ Qali Stadium. Tyrone Mings believes the trophy-winning mentality of England’s players, such as Manchester City’s five Treble-winning players and Declan Rice’s Europa Conference League win with West Ham, can help the country claim its first major trophy since the 1966 World Cup. England have come close to winning a trophy in recent years by reaching the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup and finishing as runners-up at the delayed Euro 2020. Mings, along with Aston Villa teammate Jack Grealish, Manchester United’s Harry Maguire, Marcus Rashford and Luke Shaw, Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold and Jordan Henderson, and Atletico Madrid’s Kieran Trippier have all won major honours. England midfielder Henderson has discussed the challenges of playing the 2022 World Cup in the middle of a season but that he had not entertained thoughts of retiring. He still loves and enjoys coming away and representing his country and wants to do it as long as possible. Listeners can follow live text coverage of the match on the BBC Sport website and app, and listen on BBC Radio 5 Live.
