Those 6 mentioned should all go, as well as Grealish, Mount and Greenwood. That's 9 players for 4 positions in a 4-2-3-1, with Mount also being an option deeper. Take 4 central midfield players - Rice, Henderson, Phillips and Bellingham. 5 fullbacks - Walker, TAA, Trippier, Chilwell and Shaw. 5 centrebacks - Stones, Maguire, Mings and god knows who else, Keane and Dier? Finally 3 keepers - Pope, Henderson and Pickford.Grealish is quality and runs with the ball better than anyone else. If playing three forwards England will need six players in the squad at least:
Kane/Calvert-Lewin
Sterling/Sancho
Rashford/Foden
Mount could play in midfield or in the front three. Does Grealish go as one of the extra three players in the squad? Where does that leave Mason Greenwood?
Apart from CB I'd say the squad pretty much picks itself. Saka could be an option due to his versatility, but I'm not sure if there's anyone else pushing hard to break into the 26.
