'A real threat' - Lee Carsley singles out England attacker for praise after Jack Grealish and Declan Rice score in Ireland win

UEFA Nations League B

England

Ireland

Although <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/england-player-ratings-vs-ireland-declan-rice-jack-grealish-nations-league/blte9b8bb1e216fb44d" target="_blank">Declan Rice and Jack Grealish were the scorers as the Three Lions opened their Nations League campaign with three points</a>, Gordon impressed in just his fifth senior appearance for his national team.

WHAT HAPPENED?

The Newcastle star had three shots on target and set up two chances before he was replaced after 77 minutes, and impressed enough earn a special mention by new boss Carsley for the danger he posed at the Aviva Stadium.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

"I thought they [Rice and Grealish] took their goals really well," he said. "Really well-worked moves and brilliant finishes. I think, moving forward, they can both add a lot more goals to their game. Jack definitely doesn't have anything to prove to us, we can see his quality, but today will have done him the world of good, getting another goal for England and hopefully he can continue that form. On a really dry sticky pitch, it's not ideal for dribblers but I thought Anthony [Gordon] was a real threat. He's carried on his form from last season and he looks a really dangerous player."

WHAT CARSLEY SAID

Gordon will fancy his chances of getting his fourth start for England when they continue their Nations League campaign with a match against Finland on Tuesday.
