FA chairman Greg Dyke has given Roy Hodgson a huge vote of confidence going into the knock-out stages of the Euros, saying he thinks England can win the tournament.
Last week, Dyke suggested Hodgson may have to reach the semi-finals to be offered a new deal. But he told Sky Sports News HQ he thinks England can win it - and the manager could be rewarded with a new contract.
But with Dyke leaving the FA, Hodgson's future will be decided by chief executive Martin Glenn and technical director Dan Ashworth,
Hodgson said: "Our position is straightforward. Roy had a contract and when the tournament is over a decision will be made.
"Now I think Roy is doing a great job, we're very supportive of him and I personally have always been very supportive of him.
"I think he's a really good bloke and I believe we will go on and do really well in this tournament and he will get a new contract.
"I think we can win the tournament. I think we have played quite well. What we need to do is start meeting some teams that are a bit more attacking as that gives us some room."
