The Tottenham Hotspur and Everton men were questionable on Tuesday.
Lee Dixon has claimed on Twitter that Eric Dier and Phil Jagielka were questionable for Spain’s late equaliser against England in Tuesday’s friendly at Wembley.
Isco struck in the final stages as Spain – who were losing 2-0 on 89 minutes – somehow managed to draw with the Three Lions last night.
The Real Madrid man got the run on his Tottenham Hotspur counterpart and casually nutmegged goalkeeper Tom Heaton at the death.
But the experienced Everton defender was far from innocent, as Jagielka appeared to be caught in two minds whether to close down Isco or stay in the middle and anticipate a cross.
And the legendary Arsenal right-back has suggested on Twitter that both of them could have done better.
Jordan Henderson made his feelings quite clear directly after the goal as the Liverpool man seemed to point the finger of blame in the Tottenham man’s direction.
It is perhaps a little easier to make an arguement for the Everton stalwart. Had Jagielka closed down the shot then Isco could have simply rolled it across the face of goal, with a number of red shirts on hand to tap home from close range.
