England stars should stick to their day job! Declan Rice, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Kieran Trippier fail baking challenge miserably as they aim to depict likes of Wayne Rooney in gingerbread-man form

During England's international camp, Channel 4's Great British Bake Off set Trent Alexander-Arnold, Kieran Trippier and Declan Rice a challenge. The trio had to create likenesses of past Three Lions heroes, and it's fair to say that the results were questionable.

England's stars always get involved in light-hearted media activities during the international break. With the Three Lions already qualified for Euro 2024, Gareth Southgate might have afforded his players a little more time in the kitchen to practice. They clearly need it.

Trent's effort was meant to be a likeness of Steven Gerrard, but it was certainly better than Rice's terrifying impression of John Terry. Meanwhile, Trippier modeled his gingerbread man on Wayne Rooney, with limited success. The best of the bunch by far was Jordan Henderson's likeness of Paul Gascoigne.

England will host Malta at Wembley on Friday before rounding off their successful Euro 2024 qualifying campaign with a trip to North Macedonia on Monday. Let's hope Rice & Co. do better in Germany next summer than they did in the Bake Off kitchen.
