England Under 16s manager, John Peacock, has explained why he had to sub out Anglo - Nigerian Layton Ndukwu against Italy in both countries opening Group D fixture at the European Under 17 Championship on Thursday.<br /><br />The gaffer has stressed that the Leicester City striker gave a good account of himself but had to replaced for Edwards because he wanted a sharper attack.<br /><br />&ldquo;Yeah, a change like that does (look good on the manager),&rdquo; said Peacock to thefa,com.<br /><br />&ldquo;But I said to Layton that it was nothing on reflection with his performance, I just felt we had to be a little bit more clinical in the attacking third.<br /><br />&ldquo;It&rsquo;s nice when it comes off - it doesn&rsquo;t always do that. Everyone has played their part tonight though, even those on the bench, and we are all pleased with the outcome.&rdquo;<br /><br />England, who defeated Italy 1- 0 courtesy of Edward&rsquo;s strike in the 47th minute, will face Italy in their next game at the tourney.<br /><br />Photo Credit : lcfc.co.uk<br />
