I mean you can say what you want about England under Hodgson but at least he tried to change things with an arguably much smaller pool of talent compared to now, even if the football was still woeful.
This would be my set-up
Although of course Gareth wouldn't dare drop Foden. Wharton alongside Rice would allow Rice to get forward more with Wharton pulling strings in midfield. We know what Eze can do but he can easily be swapped out for Gordon or Palmer. Gomez is the only one aside from Tripper who can really play at LB if Shaw's not fully fit yet.
