Eberechi Eze has been a standout player for Crystal Palace in their last two seasons and the popular 24-year-old midfielder has ten goals and four assists this season, which has earned him a call-up for the qualifiers.
Another player from Palace to earn a place in the Three Lions squad is Marc Guehi, who has been a rock at the back for the Eagles in a solid Premier League season.

Amongst those left out of the England squad for June was Raheem Sterling, who gas struggled for game time at a woeful Chelsea this season.
Sterling has scored just six goals for Chelsea this season, but has still been one of their better players in a disappointing season for the Blues.
Southgate said the reason Sterling wasn’t selected was due to his fitness however and assured fans that it was simply as a precaution:
“He is not happy with his condition physically, carrying a hamstring problem. He wasn’t really in consideration.
