CARLOS QUEIROZ has resisted the temptation to call his old friend Sir Alex Ferguson for advice on how to plot England's downfall.
Iran coach Queiroz was Ferguson's assistant at Manchester United over two spells, helping the Red Devils to win three Premier League titles, as well as the Champions League.
Queiroz remains close to Ferguson but reassured England fans he has not tapped into the former United manager's football brain to try to cause an upset against the Three Lions.
"I confess that I did not receive any help from Scotland!" said a smiling Queiroz.
"Of course, we talk frequently as friends. But you can relax, Scotland this time is not supporting anything against England!" Queiroz, who was at United from 2002-03 and 2004-08 (with Fergie, below), hailed Gareth Southgate's current squad as the best England have had since their World Cup win of 1966.
