And they're preparing for the last eight clash by playing with crocs in the pool.

Captain Harry Kane was pictured with a couple of inflatables perched on the diving board in the background.

The Three Lions made the blow-up unicorn iconic at the last World Cup.

It returned for last summer's Euros, with Bukayo Saka famously seen beaming as he leapt into the pool on one.

The beach item has already been seen out in Qatar, with Harry Maguire uploading a photo to his Instagram story captioned: "Nice to meet you again."

But England have upped their game and added some crocodiles to their collection.

They currently cost £11 on Amazon.

England players are often spotted relaxing in the water between sessions, while they've also found other ways to stay entertained away from the pitch.
