Reece James aims sly dig at Southgate with Ivan Toney comment
Reece James was left out of Gareth Southgate's England World Cup team even though he could make a return by the time knockout stages come around.
Ivan Toney was another player left out by Gareth Southgate and he isn't even injured. Instead he's been in hot form, scoring a brace against Man City in Brentford's 2-1 win over the holders.
Toney now has 11 goals and 3 assists in 16 games for Brentford this season and is only 2 behind Kane in PL scoring charts.
After the win Toney posted a picture on Instagram and Reece James left an interesting comment.
If I speak im in big trouble,' wrote Reece.
The dig is clearly aimed at Gareth Southgate, whose selection came under scrutiny soon after he chose to leave behind Toney.
