da winzada777: The Three Lions have a world-class pool of players and there should be no excuses if they do not win the Euros – but who will make the cut?
da apostebet: England have often gone into tournaments with inflated expectations and confidence, but this time the hype is justified. The Three Lions should be heading to Germany with one intention only: to bring the trophy home.
Gareth Southgate's side were just a couple of penalties away from ending 55 years of hurt in the last European Championship, but since that agonising final defeat to Italy at Wembley, they have only gotten stronger. They shone at the 2022 World Cup, being eliminated by the finest of margins by France, and have gotten used to going deep in tournaments, something that was unthinkable in the past.
Harry Kane is even more prolific and has been breaking all sorts of scoring records in Germany with Bayern Munich, while Jude Bellingham has conquered the most demanding fans in the world and become Real Madrid's most important player.
Meanwhile, England's Manchester City contingent have gotten used to lifting a trophy every few months, Bukayo Saka has become Arsenal's talisman and fringe players such as Ollie Watkins are having sensational seasons.
Given the embarrassment of riches at his disposal, Southgate has no excuses for his side not going all the way this summer. But who has made England's Euro 2024 squad? GOAL has all the details after Southgate announced his final 26-man roster on June 6…
GettyGOALKEEPERS
Southgate has been pretty consistent with his goalkeeper selections, sticking with the trio of Jordan Pickford, Aaron Ramsdale and Sam Johnstone since June 2023. However, Johnstone will miss the tournament after suffering an elbow injury in March, and his place has gone to club-mate Dean Henderson.
Pickford has been the undisputable No.1 since Southgate first took charge in 2016, and that is unlikely to change now. He has continued to perform superbly for Everton, keeping the second-highest number of clean sheets in the Premier League despite the Toffees' struggles.

England's defence has also been pretty consistent under Southgate, but injury problems have left the manager with something of a headache heading into the tournament. Harry Maguire has confirmed that the calf injury that curtailed his season with Manchester United will not recover in time for him to take part, while Luke Shaw – who has not played since February – is also yet to prove his fitness.
Maguire's absence opens to door for Crystal Palace's Marc Guehi to likely start alongside John Stones in Germany, while Kieran Trippier could be pressed into left-back duty should Shaw not be ready to start England's tournament opener against Serbia on June 16.

The midfield is a curious area for England, as they have two of the best operators in the world in Declan Rice and Bellingham, and then plenty of question marks over who should play alongside them.
Conor Gallagher has been most in-form midfielder aside from Rice and Bellingham, but Trent Alexander-Arnold is also an option after Southgate brought him into midfield towards the end of 2023. Manchester United teenager Kobbie Mainoo, meanwhile, impressed against Brazil and Belgium in March, and is certainly in the conversation when it comes to potential starters.
Southgate has also selected Adam Wharton, who has enjoyed a meteoric rise after joining Crystal Palace from Blackburn Rovers in January.

Southgate could hardly ask for a better set of forwards to choose from, and there is a case to made that England have the highest number of quality attackers in the world.
As well as Kane, who 44 goals in his debut campaign at Bayern, Watkins is in the form of his life, and he picked up the Premier League Playmaker of the Year award for the most assists in the division this season to go with his 19 goals.
There is also no shortage of outstanding wide forwards, with Anthony Gordon and Cole Palmer recently joining the fray to complement the highly-experienced yet still remarkably young Saka and Phil Foden.
