Biggest issue for England is the spine of the team, aside from Kane we don't really have many central players that will truly strike fear into the hearts of the opposition, they are either relatively unproven or coming off an iffy season.
I've decided to demote Alli based on the fact he's not had that many chances under Mourinho so the end of the season has come a bit too soon for him, and I'd forgotten Maddison. I do think Alli has one of the highest potential of England players though, if we need a game-changer he could be it. Absolute baller when on form, not totally sold on his attitude at times though. Also I guess we should have enough creativity from elsewhere.Alli? Not a chance he goes and neither does ward prowse. He will take Rashford because he likes him.

Ward-Prowse I think gives a bit of balance to the squad, he's the best on dead-balls and the likes of Kane and DCL should thrive on his delivery. He can also sit a bit deeper than some, one of the issues is we have a lot of creative attacking midfielders, but not much lying deeper.
Too soon for Alli but he's actually looked pretty decent from what I've seen in the few games he's played since Mason has been manager. Played well yesterday for example.
He's just a lying, incompetent **** that needs booting ASAP.There's reports today that Southgate's not going to pick Trent. I may not watch any of the euros this summer (I probably will actually but only because there's nothing else on) and I'm all for Liverpool players having a summer off but that would be one of the worst decisions made by an England manager in my lifetime, probably the worst actually. Alongside Kane, Trent is the only truly world class player England have. I'm not sure if something has happened behind the scenes or if Southgate is just mental.
