If Southgate wouldn't love him then it would be very hard for him because Hudson-Odoi will be fit soon.
England squad (Games against Bulgaria and Kosovo)

5-1
Sancho with another. 5-1. Sterling again.
5-1
5-1.
I know it's only Kosovo.
But we're a very good side with the potential to be even better.

Let's just award the MOTM already. Magical performance from Sterling.
That hungry movement by sancho is exactly what we need. Not ball watching, just running.
Sterling running riot.
Imagine James on the left and Sancho on the right for United.

England can’t play like this against the top tier, arguably Kosovo are better with the ball and England pressing and countering.
Stirling is on another level. fecking brliiant player
What a performance from Sterling.
Kosovo's defenders will see nightmares with Sterling as demon tonight.
Sterling is fantastic. Pep has changed him completely.
5-1 now....wow i haven't expected that Kosovo are soooooo open in the midfield

Ok let's be honest, England are doing well but how does a goalkeeper let all those shots in?
And Kane in the middle....
Rashord isn't getting back into the starting 11
So what's gonna happen second half? We just walk about and play it out as a friendly?
DDG may know.
He runs and moves the ball.
Gambled on England -7 hasn't he
And rightly so tbh
I think we lack a top class central midfielder, I like Rice but Henderson is as average as it gets.
Don't really rate Barkley either.

Sterling is now a world class player.
Get Mount on.
Good half by England!
Sterling is different class. What a player!!
Sterling is different class. What a player!!
Now please Maddison and Mount for Barkley and Henderson
Who is Liverpool’s top class midfielder? England like Liverpool set up to by pass the midfield. The midfield are there to run, press, tackle and move the ball on.
Lingard should honestly be nowhere near this England team.
He's miles away from Sterling and Sancho.

Sterling has had an excellent game. England did well to bounce back after that shocking goal. Kosovo have played some nice stuff, but they are so open at the back.
He’s been one for a while let’s be honest; some disappointing performances at international level or not, his club performances have been out of this world for a good while.
We're a very good side, I'm just saying where we could improve.
Liverpool are a very good side but they'd be even better with a top class midfielder to replace Henderson.
I do think that he would have scored had he been in place of Sancho although he is looking pretty good.
Can’t agree, the midfield do a job, the front 3 are what play the football.
Yeah, but he is now proving it at international level, his finishing and unselfishness has improved immensely.
If Gomes was to get into this England team where would he play? England play a 4-3-3 right? Can Gomes play in a Midfield 3?
Have you watched the game at all, the midfielders don’t dwell, don’t dribble, they run, win the ball and move it fast. Henderson is so underrated, he will tackle, run and pass all day. I’d have Barkley out before Henderson.
Nice half!
One thing I noticed is that, unlike against Bulgaria where Rashford and Sterling were switching wings, Sterling has stayed on the left and Sancho on the right with no rotation whatsoever.
Also, credit where it's due: Rice and Barkley are doing well.

What is going on with that own goal? Keeper leaves it and defender scores.
