He’s flying at Spurs… but what does he have to achieve from now to May to get into the England starting team? Does he have any chance at all?

Maddison is probably in a best 11 of Premier League players so far this season.

But Southgate tends to play a double divot in big games. Kane and Saka are impossible to drop. Bellingham now picks himself automatically.

That leaves Foden, Rashford, Grealish, Henderson and you could argue TAA too - and then also of course Maddison - all fighting for a starting spot.

Is it unrealistic for Maddison to be starting even if he continues his relentless form.

Is he relying on injuries to try and force his way in? Our Southgate to abandon his double pivot principles in what is likely his final tournament?

Thoughts?
