English midfielder Ruben Loftus-Chick commented on the upcoming World Cup in Russia and his challenge to the ranks of the national team.

"I received a message from Gareth Southgate, it simply said that he would be happy to work with me in Russia. My heart was beating when I saw his name on the phone screen and I was very happy to get into the national team and go to the World Cup, it was an amazing feeling, "- quotes the England midfielder official site Chelsea.

"I can not even say what I felt that day. I did not think and did not wind myself, I decided then that let it be, as it will be. Psychologically, I was preparing for wallpaper development options. It's good that I got the message I wanted, and I'm so glad that I'll go to Russia ".

"For me and many of my colleagues, performing at the World Cup is the limit of dreams, because playing at this level with the best players on the planet is amazing. I'm already looking forward to when I can test myself in matches with the strongest ".

"We have a young team, and I know a few players very well, so for me it will be very good, there will not be anything unfamiliar. And of course, there will be Gary Cahill, it's great that there will be someone from Chelsea, but like I said, I know most of the team and we are ready to go ".

"The first World Cup, which I watched already consciously and completely, was in 2010, that year Frank Lampard was not counted a goal against the German team in South Africa. I remember very well that moment, it was unpleasant, and for a long time I could not accept this, I'm sure others could not ".

"World championships are amazing tournaments, and they are full of such memorable moments, it's sad that then England turned out to be the injured party".
