Manchester United great Roy Keane has questioned their England players.
Mason Greenwood and Jadon Sancho were left out of Gareth Southgate's latest squad for the World Cup qualifiers against Albania and San Marino.
Forward Marcus Rashford was included, but subsequently pulled out due to illness, resulting in Emile Smith Rowe receiving his first call-up.
Discussing the three players on ITV prior to the Three Lions' clash against Albania, Keane said: "Every case is different, Sancho hasn't been getting many minutes recently.
"The issue I suppose with Rashford and Greenwood is that whenever they're selected it seems to be an issue.
"I know they've had injuries, I understand that, but we know their quality and when Gareth is asked about them he says 'yeah I spoke to Marcus...' It seems like a big conversation.
"It's as if there's something going wrong, there's something amiss with some of these United lads."
He added: "They're young and hungry but a change of scenery will probably do them the world of good, there's negativity around United at the moment with the bad results.
"There's this idea that they need to save their club and do something about it on the training pitch there.
"I think for the two young lads to come here, change of scenery and again, get some minutes under your belt."
