England in the premier league

OK, you are the England manager, pick your best 25 man squad, where do you think you would finish in next seasons premier league?

I think we would be a top half team for sure, but I don't think we'd be qualifying for Europe, I reckon 7th or 8th hopefully with a good cup run, get to the 1/4 finals, maybe a semi.
Can't be arsed even thinking about picking a 25 man England squad but with the squad we have had in recent months I'm going to say 20th if I am the manager! With Southgate as manager probably about 10th and with a decent manager potentially challenging for top 6.
 
Interesting stats from last season for England

Premier League top 6 clubs English players (players with 1,000 mins minimum of club football)

1st - Chelsea (1)

Gary Cahill - 3.835'

2nd - Tottenham Hotspur (7)

Danny Rose - 1.803'
Kyle Walker - 3.176'
Kieran Trippier - 1.464'
Eric Dier - 4.091'
Dele Alli - 4.014'
Harry Winks - 1.297'
Harry Kane - 3.154'

3rd - Manchester City (2)

John Stones - 3.170'
Raheem Sterling - 3.627'

4th - Liverpool (5)

Nathaniel Clyne - 3.616'
Jordan Henderson - 2.355'
James Milner - 3.437'
Adam Lallana - 2.607'
Daniel Sturridge - 1.193'

5th - Arsenal (4)

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain - 2.568'
Theo Walcott - 2.465'
Kieran Gibbs - 1.618'
Rob Holding - 1.560'

6th - Manchester United (8)

Chris Smalling - 2.609'
Phil Jones - 2.222'
Luke Shaw - 1.374'
Michael Carrick - 2.696'
Ashley Young - 1.439'
Jesse Lingard - 2.208'
Marcus Rashford - 3.068'
Wayne Rooney - 2.415'
 
Using only players from the top 6 teams included above I'd go for:

Phil Jones -- John Stones -- Gary Cahill

Kyle Walker ------ Eric Dier - Harry Winks ------ Danny Rose

Raheem Sterling --------------- Dele Alli

Harry Kane​


I'd pick Michael Carrick instead of Harry Winks but he's like 37. I'd also pick Jordan Henderson instead of Harry Winks if he wasn't such an over-rated ponce. Not much choice in the middle to be honest. Apart from there, and maybe Phil Jones, that team looks pretty good to me. They would win nothing though as there's no goalie lol!

What do these numbers mean?
 
None of them have played 5 minutes then. Over here the ' thing means feet.
As in they're all tiny little fuckers.

No, none have played 5 minutes. It's a list of those that have played 1000 minutes or more
