Jose Mourinho has backed England for World Cup glory, claiming Gareth Southgate's young squad has enough top-level experience to be a success on the biggest stage.
Mourinho, whose Manchester United players Jesse Lingard, Ashley Young, Phil Jones and Marcus Rashford are all in the squad, feels England have the talent to go all the way.
"I think they can [win the World Cup. I think they have a good group of young but experienced players," Mourinho said. "They're at a good age but good level of experience, all of them. They play in the best domestic competition in the world, the Premier League.
"All of them playing in the best teams, all of them with experience of playing Champions League which is high level football obviously. So yes I think they can do it."
