Centre Back: Chris Smalling (Manchester United)
Another up-and-coming defender from Old Trafford that looks like making it into England’s final 23-man squad for next summer’s World Cup finals, but not into Roy Hodgson’s actual starting lineup in Brazil.
Left Back: Ashley Cole (Chelsea)
It will be intriguing to see who the Three Lions head coach opts to start with as his left-sided full back at Brazil 2014, the veteran Blues defender or his rival from Goodison Park?
However, either way England appear to be in safe hands.
