England manager Gareth Southgate has told his players they should not be afraid to voice their ambition of winning Euro 2020 as he prepares to name his squad. Southgate's side host Croatia, Scotland and the Czech Republic in next month's group matches, which are being held across Europe. "But we've got to make sure we won't just win because we're at home, we won't just win because we're an exciting team. At the 2016 tournament in France Roy Hodgson's England suffered an embarrassing defeat to Iceland in the last 16. "We've only been to one European semi-final as a country, never mind to a final or winning," said Southgate.
