Take risks, urges Gareth Southgate

England’s interim manager Gareth Southgate has called on his side to set pulses racing at Wembley today with an exciting, attacking style.

Southgate will lead out his country against Malta hoping to make headlines for the right reasons after the embarrassing exit of previous boss Sam Allardyce.

A home game against a nation ranked 176th in the world should present a soft introduction, but he was clear that he wanted more than just three points from the game. He has called for his team to be aggressive and gamble, if necessary, in a bid to showcase their skills.
