Postecoglou convinced Maddison and Spence will 'be in the frame' for England selection

Ange Postecoglou reacts to the omissions of James Maddison and Djed Spence from Thomas Tuchel's England squad

00:00Again, I'm not obviously across it and I'm pretty critical of myself when people question

00:11my selections because every manager's got all the information they need.

00:16I think Madders is in a real challenging season for us.

00:19He's really grinded his way through and his qualities really come through the last few

00:23weeks especially when we've been able to give him a spell every now and then.

00:28Again, last night I thought he was a real catalyst for us in an attacking sense and

00:31also worked hard for the team.

00:33Look, Jed's been super this year and I always feel with these things, particularly with

00:38national team selection, it's never a kind of thing where you just draw a line through

00:43it.

00:44I've got no doubt if Jed keeps performing like he is and Madders keeps working hard,

00:47I'm sure Thomas will be looking across the board at his squads over the next period and

00:52I'm sure both of them will be in the frame.
