Loftus-Cheek: 'I'm not thinking about racism'
England midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek says that he is "not thinking about racism" while at the World Cup.

England midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek has said that he is "not thinking about racism" while at the World Cup.

Fellow Three Lions international Danny Rose earlier advised his family to stay in England, away from potential racism during the tournament.

Loftus-Cheek, however, told the Evening Standard that he will "go with the flow" and deal with the issue if it arises.

"That's Danny's choice," the 22-year-old said about Rose's statement. "I'm not thinking about it too much - if it happens we'll deal with it but, looking ahead, I'm just going with the flow."

"Yes, we've had a few meetings on it to get a vision as a group, how they think about it and what way to go."

Loftus-Cheek added that preparations are expected to ramp up ahead of Monday night's game with Tunisia.

"We've just started to go over tactics; meetings and analysing the first game, I expect there will be a lot more of that in the next couple of days," the midfielder said.

Lotfus-Cheek scored two goals and assisted three others in the Premier League for Crystal Palace last season.
