Former Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy has criticised England's Under-17 players for celebrating their World Cup win with their shirts on back to front.
The Young Lions came from two goals down against Spain to engineer a remarkable 5-2 triumph in the final of the tournament on Saturday, months after the England Under-20s side completed the same feat in their age bracket.
The side - including young guns Rhian Brewster, Phil Foden and Morgan Gibbs-White - all posed with the trophy wearing their shirts backwards, meaning that their surnames were visible in photography and video of the celebrations.
"There's no England badge in the picture of them winning the World Cup – for me, that's wrong," Murphy told talkSPORT. "They've all turned their shirts around because they want their names across their chests, so everybody across the world can see who they are.
"They're all saying, 'I'm a good young player coming through, look at me', but that in itself is what is wrong with society. In effect, they're thinking about fame as well as being a footballer and I think it creates a big debate here.
"I thought the way they played was amazing and the way they've been coached has been fantastic and Steve Cooper (manager) deserves great credit.
"Some of those players could go on to be superstars. We're talking some amazing talent in that group and the freedom they played with, everybody should be happy to see that in an England shirt, and I am too, I was proud of them.
"But the England badge not being in that picture says a lot. The fact they want their names to be on the front of their shirts and think about getting their name out there so people know who they are – they are not wrong, but it's what is wrong at the moment."
The Under-17 and Under-20 triumphs this year mark the first time that an England side has won a World Cup at any age bracket since the famous win of 1966.
