#3 Young and confident players playing at the highest level

England boasts a few of the world's best young talents such as Marcus Rashford, Raheem Sterling, and John Stones.
These youngsters are consistently performing in the UEFA Champions League for their clubs against some of the best players in the world, so their confidence will be sky high.
In previous years, England has found it hard to overcome the smaller sides and struggled to break them down. However, with the depth of the squad that Southgate has at his disposal, this shouldn't be a problem this time around.
Some players are also working with the best managers in world football at club level, which has helped them to develop every area of their performances.
