Wills also shared his youngest son Prince Louis‘ advice, who suggested the players “eat twice the amount” to secure their bid for Euros glory.
He said: “I was on the school run this morning with the children and I asked them what I should say to you today.
“The best bit of advice I got to ask you was to eat twice as much as you normally eat.
“I don’t have visions of all of you running around with massive red tummies and getting stitches on the pitch.
“So I think maybe take my youngest’s kind of advice with a pinch of salt.”
England skipper Harry Kane jokingly said: “I don’t think our nutritionist will be happy with that advice.”
