Adam Lallana failed to make the cut following his recent fitness issues, while Jesse Lingard , Fabian Delph and Ashley Young will also form the heart of the Three Lions squad. Tottenham striker Harry Kane will once again lead the England line, and is tipped to be captain, with support from Jamie Vardy, Danny Welbeck  and Marcus Rashford , at the expense of Bournemouth's Jermain Defoe. England's World Cup 2018 squad in full  Goalkeepers: Jordan Pickford, Nick Pope, Jack Butland  Defenders: Kyle Walker, Kieran Trippier, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Gary Cahill, Danny Rose, John Stones, Harry Maguire, Phil Jones, Ashley Young Midfielders:  Eric Dier, Fabian Delph, Jordan Henderson, Dele Alli, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Raheem Sterling, Jesse Lingard Forwards:  Harry Kane, Jamie Vardy, Marcus Rashford, Danny Welbeck England will begin their Group G campaign against Tunisia on June 18, before fixtures against Panama on June 24 and Belgium on June 28. Expectations aren't high for the Three Lions although favourable Group H opponents in the last 16 - Colombia, Poland, Senegal or Japan - could offer a potential quarter-final berth, where Germany or Brazil would likely await.</blockquote>
