Jack Grealish makes England vow with Czech Republic start possible as Mason Mount isolates
Jack Grealish promises to be “fearless” if he is finally given a starting place against the Czech Republic on Tuesday night. England’s Grealish could come into the starting eleven for Gareth Southgate with Mason Mount currently self-isolating, as is Ben Chilwell, after Scotland’s Billy Gilmour tested positive for Covid.
The Chelsea trio were seen in close contact on the pitch after England’s goalless draw with Scotland in their second Euro 2020 Group D match on Friday night.
Aston Villa midfielder Grealish insists that despite the use of an ice-pack during the tournament on his troublesome shins, he is 100 per cent fit and raring to go.
And his battlecry is music to England fans frustrated after his cameo substitute roles have not been able to lift a fairly turgid start to the tournament so far.
He said: “I hope to bring a lot. If I got the chance to play, I’d be as fearless as possible. I’d attack the full backs or whoever I’m up against. I’d just try and do what I do on a weekly basis for Aston Villa.
“I see every game as if it’s just a normal game. I wouldn’t try and change stuff. I don’t ever really get nervous or worry about games, because as soon as you’re five minutes into a game anyway you’re just in the zone, so I would never sit there before a game worrying.
