Pick your starting XI for England’s next World Cup game using our interactive team selector
Thursday 1 December 2022 08:16, UK
Gareth Southgate’s England squad may have made qualified from Group B with a 3-0 win over Wales, but would you make changes to the starting XI in the round of 16?
The England manager now has selection headaches in almost all areas of the pitch, with Marcus Rashford and Phil Foden looking to stave off competition from Bukayo Saka, Raheem Sterling and Jack Grealish to retain their starting berths.
In midfield, Jordan Henderson impressed against Rob Page’s side, with Mason Mount and Kalvin Phillips looking to regain their place in the side – while James Maddison has returned to full training and is in line for his first appearance at the tournament.
There are also question marks over whether England should stick or twist with their 4-3-3 formation, with Kieran Trippier, Kyle Walker and Trent Alexander-Arnold vying for the right-back spot if Southgate refrains from reverting to three at the back.
