Stefan Savic has hit out at Jordan Henderson and England's stars for the way they "disrespect" Montenegro's players during their Euro 2020 qualifier.

The Three Lions came from behind to thrash their rivals 5-1 - with Michael Keane, Ross Barkley, Harry Kane and Raheem Sterling all getting on the scoresheet.

The match contained a number of bad tempered moments on the field, while Gareth Southgate's stars were subjected to racist abuse from the stands - which UEFA are currently investigating.

But Atletico Madrid defender Savic, who used to play for Manchester City , has complained about the patronising nature of the visitors on Monday night.

Savic claims Henderson, who came off the bench to make his 50th appearance for this country, sarcastically offered his shirt to a Montenegro player after a clash.

Henderson had gone head-to-head with Nikola Vukcevic before he was booked.

“We all know they are a much bigger team than us but sometimes I feel very bad to be playing the same sport as some players,” said Savic.

“Jordan Henderson, for example, sarcastically told our player after one normal clash he would give him a jersey after the match.

"It is ugly and disrespectful. I told him he was good enough not to act like that.

“We are proud and I’d rather play with this team and concede five goals and not with some arrogant players from England.”

Meanwhile, Barkley, who bagged a brace, has admitted moving from Everton to Chelsea invigorated his career.

He explained: “I am away from my family and down in London by myself. I am in a totally different environment from Liverpool . I miss being with my family, it is totally different. It is how I am maturing as a person and a player. It is good.”

“Since I made the move it was good to challenge myself and win trophies and to improve as a player. I’ve changed compared to when I was 18, 19 or 20.

"My diet is much ­better. My ­approach to games is much better and I am going into them with the right ­preparation and I am more ­relaxed, rather than think about things too much.
