‘Why?’: Everton player gets mocked by John Stones as soon as he turns up to England camp for the World Cup

Everton fans may be glad they can shift their attention aw✅ay from Goodison 🍸Park for a month after recent results.

A number of Frank Lampard’s players have now joined up with their national teams ahead of the World Cup starting.

One of those is Jordan Pickford, who will almost certainly be England’s n🍸umber one at another major tournament.

The eccentric shot stopper has been part of one of the Premier League’s best defences th𝓡is season.

However, his personal form has been up and down, and he’d have been disappointed with one of the goals he conceded at Bournemouth on Saturday.

He’s still very much got the backing of his manager, with Lampard arguing he’s been playing his best football al✤l year.

However, it wasn’t Pickford’s footballing ability that saw John Stones mocking🎐 him when he arrived on England duty yesterday.

Pickford is seen🐎 arriving with a massive suitcase with his initials on the s𓄧ide.

, “Are yo♔u pꦛart of the analysis team for this tournament? Are those all toiletries?”

: “You’ll see,” before wondering inside.

Pickfo๊rd is then greeted by Stones, who a🐻lso mocks his suitcase, simply looking at it and asking him, “Why?”

It’s a slightly worr🔴ying thing to hear for England fans that Pickford needs a bigger screen for his laptop because of his eye❀sight.

Iܫf there’s any position where having clear vision is important, it would be i🌳n goal.

However, he may just be trying to avoid s⛎training his eyes🐟 by using a screen that’s too small.

Piౠckford being m𝐆ocked by Stones shows the camaraderie in the camp between players from different squads.

Both players have w🍰orked closely t𝓀ogether over the years in England’s defensive unit.

In less than one week’s time, the♚y’ll be walking out together to face Iran in England’s opening game.
