[Football] To cheer us up a thread full of young English talent - possibly ready for 2022

[CliveWalkerWingWizard]

We may never get a better chance, we will have to beat some seriously good teams to win it next time, so the question is who is coming through to make an average team world class.

For starters...
Alexander Arnold
Sessignon
Foden

All very exciting who else ?

England will, so we may as well.

Rhian Brewster

 

[Puppet Master]

Ademola Lookman

 

[Johnny RoastBeef]

Ademola Lookman 20 years, Forward - the creative player England are crying out for.

Reece Oxford 19 years, CB - made his West Ham debut at 16.

Mason Mount 19 years, AM - player of the tournament at the European Under 19 Championships.

Harry Maguire well ahead iof him in the pecking (picking) order now. Went to Russia almost just to make up the numbers, now one of the first names on Gareth's teamsheet.

A load of kids we've never heard of. Mbappe is 19 – I doubt many people had heard of him at Brazil '14. Just need to find 11 English versions of him and they'll be laughing!

The noise surrounding Mbappe started years ago, he has been coveted sine he was a kid. Chelsea and Madrid both tried to sign him when he was 11 but he wanted to stay in France. He even played for Chelsea back then on trial, against Charltons youth team.

 

[SussexSeahawk]

Harry Winks. Most glaring weakness in this current England team is a natural passer in midfield imo.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Will Hughes?

 

[Postman Pat]

Solly March
Christian Walton
Aaron Wan-Bissaka

Maybe Jack Grealish would have sorted his head out by then.

 

[WhingForPresident]

Assuming the included players push on as expected, for 2022 we could be looking at something like:

Pickford (28)

Alexander-Arnold (23)
Stones (28)
Gomez (25)
Sessegnon (22)

Dele (26)
Loftus-Cheek (26)
Foden (22)

Lookman (24)
Kane (28)
Sterling (27)


We also have Demarai Gray, Patrick Roberts, Ben Chilwell, Tammy Abraham, Rhian Brewster, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Tom Davies, Reece Oxford and loads of other promising players who could be very good in the future.

I just googled “young English talent that might be ready for 2022”. Wish I hadn’t done it at work

 

[Brighton Mod]

Lukaku, Kompany, De Bruyne, Courtois etc, opportunities are rare, don't count on it.

Great young players don't always turn out to be great of-age players:
