    Script: SOUNDBITE (English) Jack Butland, Stoke City and England goalkeeper: (on his chances of making it into the full England side on a regular basis)

    "I feel in great form and I don't want to be here just to make up the numbers. Joe (Hart)'s an incredible 'keeper who has established himself now for a long time. He's reached his 50 caps which is brilliant, but for me I want to put some pressure on him and hopefully get some game time of my own. So I'm just going to enjoy the week and ultimately put some pressure on and show what I'm about and hopefully get some game time."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Jack Butland, Stoke City and England goalkeeper: (on England Under-21 team mate and West Bromwich Albion striker Saido Berahino, whose proposed move to Tottenham Hotspur in the summer transfer window collapsed on the final day)

    "I think it's a very difficult situation for Saido and a young player. It's something he's got to deal with himself and the people around him. I know Saido is a fantastic player, but at the minute he has got to work on getting back into the team and proving people wrong and showing he's a good player again."
