Wayne Rooney believes England’s players need to shoulder the blame for their dire showing against Denmark on Thursday.
The Three Lions struggled to click as they limped to a 1-1 draw with their Group C opponents in Frankfurt.
Manager Gareth Southgate has come under fire for his side’s performance, but Rooney insists the players are equally to blame.
Speaking on the BBC, he said: “I think it was a flat performance, there wasn’t energy or balance in the team.
“I’m putting it on the players as well. If Harry Kane says he didn’t know what to do after the game… the players have to take responsibility.
“I think for Gareth and Steve Holland I’m pretty sure they’re working on a gameplan. Gareth’s got a chance now to reassess, I hope he makes a couple of changes to get us back on the front foot.”
