Read our privacy policy Tom Heaton tasted England’s lowest low as part of the Euro 2016 set-up and is full of praise for the way Gareth Southgate has shifted the culture, having returned to the fold as a training goalkeeper. To come and be a part of it, another major championship, is an honour and a privilege Tom Heaton “I think we’ve seen that over the last few years. “There was a good feeling going into 2016 but I think what the difference has been is we’ve now got evidence of good performances, good sort of finishes in big championships. As ever in elite-level sport, margins are fine but I think we’re starting to get a lot closer to those margins.” Heaton is full of praise for the goalkeeping pool of Jordan Pickford, Dean Henderson and Aaron Ramsdale, vowing to help the trio and England’s outfield players in any way he can in his role as training goalkeeper.
