Potential England Under 21 European Championships starting XI: Chelsea, Tottenham and Gunners starlets set for starts

Posted by

MC) James Ward-Prowse

The Saints star is a key player for the young Three Lions as his delivery from set-pieces is nothing short of superb and after captaining the side against Germany last time out, his leadership qualities will be important.

MC) Ruben Loftus-Cheek

Chelsea’s youth system is highly regarded and Loftus-Cheek is evidence that the future is bright for the Premier League champions.

Judging from the appearance towards the end of the season, the youngster likes to get on the ball and dictate from deep and he could form a successful partnership in central midfield alongside Ward-Prowse.

AMC) Harry Kane

Playing Kane in the number 10 role would allow Southgate to essentially field two strikers in certain games where goals are needed.

The Spurs hit-man is likely to be a shoe-in to start against the Portuguese after scoring 31 goals in all competitions this season.
