Whisper it quietly, but there are a whole load of young players really looking the part this season and England have the makings of a dangerous side. The delay of one year for Euro 2020 might play into our hands. My team:

1. Pickford
2. Alexander- Arnold
3. Chilwell
4. Gomez
5. Maguire
6. Mount
7. Loftus-Cheek
8. Foden
9. Kane
10.Sterling
11.Sancho

Some decent bench optiins too in Heaton, Walker, Dunk, Grealish, Rashford.

There is a player at Leeds United that seems to be all the rage. He is a defender, I can't remember his name. Leeds United fans seem to think that they are going to sell him to Liverpool though.

Pickford's done bloody well to get in that team.

A lot of talent coming through but I think, as always, we're still missing someone who can run things in the middle of the park. Also, the CBs aren't what they used to be.

Front 3 and full backs are top quality though.

Pickford's place must be in grave danger. Grealish ahead of Foden and we need an upgrade on Loftus Cheek pulling the strings in midfield, other than that it's a mind blowing array of talent, the envy of most other nations.

Love it the way you put Maguire in to catch people out who were not concentrating

Pickford and RLC stand out there, amongst all the good players. Both crap.

All of this. It used to be that all we could produce was a keeper and maybe a flair player and finisher. And probably not at the same time. Now we've got a lot of decent ball playing young stars relying on the most bang average group of keepers I can remember.

Would imagine White would be in the mix too, if he can make the step up to the PL. Not sure he will be in the team whilst playing for us though sadly

I've followed a few " Golden Generations " in my time, this ones up there with the rest of them. Only trouble is, there is usually always a better team out there and we pop a couple of cruciate's or hamstrings or a shoulder blade or an Achilles at the wrong time, or end up with a ridiculous red card and suspension....

Yeh, it's that engine room that's the issue there.

Enough attacking talent to challenge the world's best. Madison will be in the mix as well.

Interesting to see how Henderson develops and whether he can challenge Pickford's place

Dele Ali Callum Hudson-Odoi Reece James can be added to the list

Sock boy could be the player to make us a real prospect
