Steve Nicol and Craig Burley praise Noni Madueke's performance during England's 5-0 win over Serbia and talk about his potential for Arsenal.

England's 5-0 win over Serbia in World Cup qualifying has given Thomas Tuchel the confidence to feel that he is finally making the right progress as manager.

Thomas Tuchel said England's 5-0 rout of Serbia is the benchmark for future performances after a display he described as "teamwork in its purest form."
