���˿��� Sport's chief football writer Phil McNulty has been answering your questions.

Martin asked: Do you agree with me that Jordan Pickford is criminally under-rated for club and country?

Phil answered: I don't think I need to underline Pickford's importance at Everton to you. I genuinely believe Everton would be in the Championship now had it not been for his sustained excellence for his club.

I don't think anyone with an Everton connection would under-rate him.

I do, however, think he has been very under-rated for England, with people looking to pick holes that did not exist in his performances.

I think that is changing now - people are realising just what a top-class goalkeeper he has been. He showed it again in Greece, in a game England largely dominated, making two outstanding saves in each half.

Here is a telling statistic: Jordan Pickford has now equalled the legendary World Cup winner Gordon Banks' record of 73 caps - that is testimony to his consistency.

He has kept 34 clean sheets and, measured by Opta statistics, has only made one error leading to a goal, which was against Belgium in March.

I think this says it all.
