England and Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford made it two goals in two consecutive games, providing England’s winner against Switzerland.

As Marcus Rashford keeps scoring for England, the FC crew discuss whether he should leave Man United in search of minutes in a central position.
England goalkeeper Jack Butland pledged to keep playing the ball out from the back despite some hairy moments during his side’s 1-0 friendly win over Switzerland in Leicester.
Butland, who was deputising for usual No. 1 Jordan Pickford, was culpable for two errors that almost proved costly early in the first half at the King Power Stadium.
The Stoke goalkeeper nearly swept the ball into his own net as he tried to pick out a teammate stationed close to the byline on the England left and then played…

Jack Butland says he was shocked to hear that Joe Hart had not been picked in England’s World Cup squad, calling Gareth Southgate’s decision “gutsy”.
Hart was left out of the squad after a patchy season on loan at West Ham, when he was in and out of the side and showed a number of shaky moments, as the Hammers avoided relegation.
Despite Hart being the only English goalkeeper with any significant tournament experience, Southgate chose the trio of Butland, Jordan Pickford and Nick Pope, who have…

Patrick van Aanholt’s late winner sent Stoke City down to the Championship whilst ensuring his Crystal Palace side remain in the Premier League.

After a decade in the Premier League, Stoke City have been relegated to the Championship following their 2-1 defeat to Palace.

A dejected Ryan Shawcross accepts his part in Stoke’s relegation and attempts to sum up what went wrong for the Potters in 2017/18.
Jack Butland has described some Stoke City players as “ill-disciplined” who manager Paul Lambert couldn’t “rely on,” while calling the relegated club’s transfer moves “farcical.”
Stoke’s demotion to the Championship was confirmed on Saturday when they lost 2-1 to Crystal Palace, with Lambert unable to save them after he replaced Mark Hughes in January.
Butland has been one of the few players to emerge from this season with some credit, and it seems inevitable that he will leave the club in the summer….
