Kyle Walker has praised Gareth Southgate for the atmosphere that he has created within the England squad, describing it as similar to "club football".
Southgate took charge of the Three Lions in September 2016, and has successfully overseen the country's qualification to the World Cup in Russia next year.
Walker is established as one of Southgate's first-choice defenders, and insists that the players must "repay the faith" placed in them by the manager.
"It feels like club football now," said at a Lidl event.
"We have a group chat where there is always banter flying. We're all together in the games room, playing pool, having a laugh and I think it is really bringing the squad together nicely.
"When Gareth came in he has put his own stamp on it, he has in his head how he wants it to be and for us it is working. Now it is just down to us to repay the faith that he has put into us."
England will find out who they face in the group stages of the 2018 World Cup when the draw is made on Friday at 3pm GMT.
