Shaun Ryder: Euro 2016 anthem 'tops 'England's Irie''

Happy Mondays frontman Shaun Ryder said he was told to not make unofficial Euro 2016 anthem too "football-y".

He told 5 live's Ore Oduba, DJ Paul Oakenfold "Should've gone to Noel Gallagher, he knows more about football than me".

The single We are England features Ryder, his Black Grape bandmate Kermit, Goldie and DJ Paul Oakenfold.
