Regardless of what we think about Southgate, the future should certainly be bright for this England side, as dissapointing as we were in the final. We still have have the likes of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Harvey Barnes, James Justin, Mason Greenwood and Joe Gomez to come into the squad which only make us stronger. I think Barnes could really challenge for a place on the left of the front three. He's more of a Southgate type of player than Jack Grealish is. I'd also be happier having Greenwood on the bench over Calvert-Lewin, who can be effective given the right service but is a bit one dimensional.
I have no doubt that England can make more semi-finals and finals. I just hope that the next time we have an opportunity we really take the shackles off and go for it, instead of being left wondering 'what if'.
