Of his six years with England, he said:  "I've grown so much as a player and as a person in that time.

"Six years ago, I remember ex-pros that have retired now when I was at West Ham telling me, 'Dec, enjoy your career because it goes so quick'. It's just taught me to cherish every moment.

"To play for England is the biggest thing you can do and it's been one of the best journeys I've ever had.

"With Thomas now and this new era, there's still so much more to come and you're going to keep seeing the best of us."
