Raheem Sterling will be able to buy his mum a new sink without comment.

You mean we haven't won the thing yet?

He's also a smashing looking fella. No one ever said this about Big Sam: https://www.theguardian.com/fashion/shortcuts/2018/jun/19/gareth-southgate-unstoppable-style-icon-most-fashionable-man-football
