Netherlands vs England: Nigel Martyn explains why Jordan Pickford will be No.1 – regardless of Premier League form

Gareth Southgate is currently preparing his side to take on the Netherlands in the Nations League semi-final in Portugal.


Although the former Middlesbrough captain refused to confirm who would be in his team, or who would captain the side, Martyn believes Everton’s No.1 is set to start.


He told VoucherCodes.co.uk: “I think Jordan Pickford will start for sure because he’s not let Gareth down and Gareth will keep picking players that will perform for him.”


“As the goalie who’s tried to put pressure on before, all you can do is focus on your performances and try to impress around the England set up when you’re there.
