Thomas Tuchel was in the stands for Crystal Palace's late victory over Ipswich - and he cranked up the pressure on his England stars with a pre-match text.
Goalkeeper Dean Henderson has revealed he, Marc Guehi, Adam Wharton and Eberechi Eze all received the same message before grinding out a third successive home win in all competitions against the Tractor Boys.
The 27-year-old, who made six saves to bank his ninth Premier League clean sheet of the season, believes there was no better way to sign off ahead of this week's warm-weather training camp in Marbella and Friday's Three Lions squad announcement.
He just said he'd be at the match and that he'd be in the stands watching, he wished me all the best and I think he did alongside Adam, Marc and Ebs as well.

While life at Selhurst Park has been bliss for Henderson this season - securing another cap for England is now in his crosshairs.
He continued: "I'll be honest, I'd love to play for England this time around, I'm chasing that, it's one of my goals."
However, he also takes great comfort from the fact Palace did not choke against Ipswich as he feels they've previously developed a reputation for throwing away sloppy points when presented with a chance to kick on.
"If you lose or draw today [against Ipswich], I think it's typical Palace," Henderson continued.

England boss Thomas Tuchel was in the stands at Selhurst Park on Saturday.
"I think it's not taking that extra step when we're doing so well and I think it's so important to take those three points heading into the break and we'll build on it when we get back as well.
"It's massive, we can relax for a few days, chill, get out the pressure cooker and get ready for the important games when we're back.
"Credit to Ipswich, I thought they were brilliant to be fair.
I thought we showed our experience to ride it out and get our goal at the end."
Ismaila Sarr's 82nd-minute winner was his seventh Premier League goal of the season and the jet-heeled Senegal international, who cutely scooped the ball over impressive Ipswich goalkeeper Alex Palmer, paid tribute to absent frontman Jean-Philippe Mateta by mimicking his trademark celebration - jumping and booting the corner flag.
The gesture spoke volumes about the current sense of unity in south east London with the Frenchman in line to return against Fulham.
Henderson concluded: "Obviously we love JP for bits, he's been phenomenal for us so that was great from Ish to do that celebration, it was a great goal and calm finish."
