England will be pinning their hopes on him. Has been playing slightly deeper for Real Madrid recently, similar to his England role, but he gets everywhere around the pitch. Has been rested this week to get him ready for the tournament.

Has hit the 20-goal mark this season and looked good at stages of the last international break plus solid against Bosnia. The extra three positions worked in his favour in a competitive area of the squad for wide positions.

He has an X-factor that could see him make an impact off the bench in Germany. It pushed him ahead of Jordan Henderson in the battle to get in the provisional squad, then name-checked after his lively display against Bosnia.

Will surely be starting for England during the Euros. The question for the Football Writers’ Association player of the season is where his best position is under Southgate. Unfinished business after injury for the Euro 2020 final.

Gordon played very well against Brazil and it was enough for Southgate to have another look against Belgium off the bench. Has been in excellent form for Newcastle since and will be a good impact sub.

Has suffered an injury scare but will be back at full tilt for the Euros, hopefully. Bundesliga heartbreak for him but it can still be a huge summer for his country. He is integral to how England attack, as he often drops deep.

Caps: Three
Forced his way in with his form this season and first England goal on his first start. Turns up in the big moments while his team-mates have struggled. He is rising to every occasion since leaving Manchester City. Will be good if matches go to penalties.

His direct running from the right will be an important part of England’s attack as they look to go one better this time around. He pulled out of the squad to face Brazil and Belgium as a precaution, but has been back on form for Arsenal.

Caps: Two
Scored during the last international break, one year after his England debut, but then went the rest of the season without finding the net. Still enough of a threat to be part of Southgate’s artillery.

He scored 19 goals and registered 13 assists in the Premier League. These numbers speak for themselves and he deserves his place on merit and on sheer weight of goals this season.
