England boss Roy Hodgson has admitted that he is pleased with the progress he is seeing from Southampton midfielder James Ward-Prowse and Burnley striker Danny Ings.
The duo have impressed for the England Under-21 side under Gareth Southgate, and Hodgson believes that the Saints man could have a future as the deep-lying midfielder in his team.
The 67-year-old also said that he is delighted with the level of Ings's performances for Southgate's men as well as in the Premier League with the Clarets.
He told reporters: "Ward-Prowse is a player we think has got an interesting future in that position. He's injured but I don't believe I'm going to be stuck for choice.
"I saw Danny play very well for the Under-21s the other day. So I'm hoping the competition is going to get stronger and stronger."
England face off against Scotland in their friendly clash at Celtic Park on Sunday.
