Who is England’s Number One?

Joe Hart went into Euro 2016 as England’s number one goalkeeper, but after a poor tournament and being shipped out on loan to Serie A side Torino, there must certainly be a question mark over his place in the team.

The 29 year-old was at fault for a number of goals over the summer and despite not getting off to the best of starts in Italy, he has kept two clean sheets in recent weeks.

Should Southgate decide to make the same choice as Pep Guardiola, Hart’s position isn’t one where England are particularly short of players, with Jack Butland, Fraser Forster, Tom Heaton, Alex McCarthy and Jordan Pickford all waiting in the wings.
