Southgate sees Bellingham as part of England's future. Make no mistake - there is no room in Southgate's squad of 23 for passengers. If the squad size remains at 23, however, then it seems Bellingham's chances rest on the fitness, or otherwise, of Jordan Henderson. When it comes to Sterling, Southgate is a constant and vocal fan. The newspaper headlines screamed "too ill to play for England, but not too ill to go to a casino", which was correct.
