“It gives you a different level of confidence and for a lot of players to experience that, it’s only going to help the team.” Expanding on his own success with Arsenal, Eze added: “Every year you’re one more year experienced. You’ve got different things under your belt that are important for the next stage. “Winning gives you confidence, it gives you belief and trust in yourself that you can go all the way. “This has been a season of ups and downs, and so many different things I’ve had to overcome, but an enjoyable one and something I want to experience every single year. You want to continue to improve, to get better and grow.” Despite the confidence among the squad, Eze insists nobody is getting ahead of themselves as England prepare to begin their campaign in Dallas later this week.
Asked if the players had been talking about going all the way in the United States, Canada and Mexico, Eze said: “It’s more about focusing on what needs to be done to achieve what we want to achieve. It’s not overthinking about the future and how long we’re going to be here.
“It’s more the steps towards getting there. We all have goals of course and we know what the goal is for us but focusing on the next game and to win. That’s it.”
