Your support makes all the difference.After England thrashed Montenegro 7-0 at Wembley to secure their spot at the Euro 2020 finals, a number of places across Gareth Southgate‘s squad remain in contention.
The exciting contingent of young players, spearheaded by Marcus Rashford and followed by Trent Alexander-Arnold, Jadon Sancho, Callum Hudson-Odoi, Declan Rice and now Tammy Abraham all look relatively assured of their positions if they can sustain their form.
