“It’s good to have Chris back on board. He’s a very experienced coach and obviously worked for The FA many years ago.
“He was assistant coach at the U20s World Cup in Turkey last year and it was good to call on Chris to assist me for this tournament.
"This will be the first season in a competitive UEFA tournament for the players and getting used to playing a four-group schedule like this is important in preparing us for the tests ahead."
