England"Really good test, we know they are a very good side and a great challenge for us. We learned a lot about some new players and some inexperienced players in an international shirt.""He is infectious. He can set the tone for the rest of the team, you see that with his club and he presses with ambition. He goes and makes contract and turns a lot of the ball over.
"To a degree, we are trying to work through the two games and manage the players. It has been a bizarre week with everything going on. We feel Mason Mount and Gallagher press well but can leave us vulnerable to the switch, the Swiss worked that out. We had an idea of what we wanted to do, we would have wanted Bukayo Saka to have a look at that.
"Everybody is always highlighting Jordan Pickford but you saw in the firs half the quality he has. He was composed with the ball today, he made good decisions and did not risk in silly areas. We played out form the back well, Ben White and Marc Guehi were very good. Ben got caught a bit for the goal but apart from that to come in at late notice with John Stones feeling something, he and Marc should be pleased.""We don't think it is too bad and could be ready for the next game.
"We know the Swiss tactically are good and we got stronger as the game went on. The subs made an impact and we felt it was right to manage the game that way. Declan Rice was excellent and made a big impact. Really pleased to win the game."
