Both Ezri Konsa and Morgan Rogers 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐓 tonight for England in a World Cup qualifier against Latvia in Riga 🇱🇻.

Konsa earns his 16th cap for England, while Morgan Rogers earns his  10th cap.

South Africa latest qualifier, despite forfeiting a match for fielding an ineligible player.

The England team looks very balanced tonight.  Not the best players but everyone in their best positions.

Can’t remember which thread but there’s a debate about Kane as a false 9. I reckon Gordon is a pretty perfect foil for that, as he’s express pace looking to get behind.  Kane should create some big gaps for him.

Looks a very good side.  I thought Anderson was very impressive in the last match. He’s very good at moving the ball around quickly.

He also does the job that means Rice can play his Arsenal role rather than sticking him as some soty of auxiliary third centre back

And it's nice that it's Konsa who keeps his place to allow Stones to come in, rather than Guehi.

After tonight there are only five matches before the World Cup, so the more the side is settled with the likes of him and Rogers in it the more likely it is thar they'll be there for England's opening game against Cape Verde.

Kane misses a routine chance. If that had been Ollie he would have been slated
