11 Players Who Will Win England The World Cup In 2018

5. Calum Chambers

Following in the impressive early footsteps of John Stones at Everton last season, Callum Chambers has displayed highly promising displays as a young English defender for Arsenal, in the early days of the 2014/15 season. The last time Arsenal had Englishmen at the heart of its defence was the halcyon days of Tony Adams & Sol Campbell. Could Chambers be the next one? At Southampton last season, he looked like a interesting young English player that the well established Southampton academy and former coach Maurico Pochettino was giving invaluable first team football, that other clubs in England wouldn't give to a local. Nathaniel Clyne was the established first choice right-back, so to seem him display such assurance in central defence at Arsenal speaks volumes about Chambers' talent. In the Premier League unfortunately any English player that shows any semblance of elite talent tends to be over-priced, but as Arsenal's ESPN writer James McNicholas stated in this article - regarding his versatility to play centre-back, right-back and holding centre midfield, in the long term his price tag could be seen as bargain if the experts are right about potential progression.
