Getting in the England squad as a striker is always going to be tough because you're competing with the country's talisman, Harry Kane. Southgate is only ever looking for a backup to the Bayern Munich hitman, and that won't be Dominic Solanke. The Bournemouth man raised his game to a new level this season and finished with 19 Premier League goals to his name.
There's an argument to suggest none of the centre-backs in Southgate's squad ended the season in better form than Chelsea's Trevoh Chalobah. The 24-year-old, who is still uncapped for his country, was integral to Chelsea's dazzling form in 2024.
