00:00Playing for England is an enjoyable feeling, but it's also a lot of pressure you hear people talk a lot of rubbish and you know
00:06It's nice that when you deliver
00:07You can give them a little bit back
00:09The truth is that I really enjoy playing football. So when I go out there I play with the fearlessness because I love doing it so much. It's a release for me
00:34And yeah, it's my favorite thing to do in the world. So when I play out, it's not
00:39Much of a job. It feels like a pleasure. Everyone knows how great of a player he is
00:43I mean see every day in training here and such a nice guy as well and
00:49To train with him. It's really good. He's demanding, you know, he has
00:53High standards that he sets and expects
01:08He's been unbelievable from Madrid this season, there's no denying that
01:12however
01:13in Englandshire
01:14He's not done anything. He's not done anything to justify him starting every game. Bellingham around Madrid is amazing
01:20But for England, what did he do? Is it Southgate's fault or Bellingham's fault?
01:23Is it I think it's Southgate's fault. Just start Cole Palmer or Phil Foden in the 10. Phil Foden does so much more in the 10
01:30Than many can ever do in the 10. Like he's so much more technical. He's so much more gifted
01:38So
01:4830 seconds from going home having to listen to all the rubbish
01:52feeling like you've let a nation of people down and
01:54In 30 seconds or a one kick of the ball everything can change
01:57What he can provide us at these moments where he grabs things by the scruff of the neck and his character and his personality
02:04Creates moments that can change a big game. It's a habit. I've picked up from Madrid
02:10Um, obviously my game's improved a lot since i've joined and uh, yeah
02:13Really grateful I could bring it to this game. It's still a long tournament and it's only really
02:17um
02:19Very important if we go on to win the cup, so, uh, we'll decide in the next two weeks how important it is
