The Three Lions did very well at Euro 2020, reaching the final, only to be beaten by Italy on penalties. However, with the current squad, can England win the Premier League on Football Manager 2022?
There’s no doubt the players are of a superb quality. Raheem Sterling and Phil Foden at Manchester City, Harry Maguire, Marcus Rashford and Luke Shaw playing at Manchester United and Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold is one of, if not thee best right-back in the world.
But, are they great on their own, or do they rely on the talented foreigners which make up the rest of these Premier League giants.
Would Reece James be as impressive if he wasn’t playing beside Romelu Lukaku and Kai Havertz? Do we expect Harry Kane to score as many goals without the skills of Son Heung-min alongside side the England forward?
There’s only one way to find out.

We’ve moved the entire current England squad, plus a few others who weren’t in the recent 23, to West Ham — they won the World Cup in 1966, didn’t you know — and we’ve added Gareth Southgate as the Assistant Manager. When we simulate through the season he’ll be the man picking the team.
In terms of the tactic, we are using RDF’s England system which he made before Euro 2020 start. We’ll see how it performs and if needed we can tweak as the season plays out.
