00:00 Is he doing anything wrong?

00:01 - No.

00:03 - That's an important question,

00:04 'cause people will ask that, Gareth,

00:05 about whether there's a breakdown

00:06 in the relationship between you and him.

00:07 - But who am I leaving out to put him in?

00:10 Who am I leaving out to put him in?

00:13 (eerie music)

00:28 I mean, the door is 100% open,

00:30 not only for Raheem,

00:31 but for other players that aren't in this squad.

00:33 I can only repeat what I've said

00:34 in the last couple of squad selection meetings.

00:36 The team are playing really well.

00:38 We had an exceptional win here against Italy

00:40 last time round.

00:41 Who do we leave out to put him in?

00:45 (dramatic music)

00:48 (dramatic music)

00:50 (dramatic music)

00:53 (dramatic music)

01:22 Of course, we talk with all the players

01:24 about how things are at their clubs,

01:26 but I think he's scored five in 10 for us,

01:30 and he's only started four of those.

01:33 So he's in a good vein of form.

01:35 He enjoys his football with us at the moment.

01:38 Of course, he's not scoring freely

01:42 at the minute with club,

01:43 but that will come.

01:44 And yeah, we're looking forward

01:49 to working with him again this week.
