It's fair to say there are great expectations for England's Under-21s this summer as Gareth Southgate's side travel to the Czech Republic to take part in the Euros. Optimism as to the Three Lions' chances next month rose to worrying heights as England overcame tournament favourites Germany in their last friendly outing, with France and Spain surprisingly falling at the qualification hurdle.
Despite the team's progress in their absence, calls remain for Southgate to recall a number of players now seen as regulars in the senior set-up, dividing opinions as to whether the likes of Sterling, Oxlade-Chamberlain and Wilshere - whose birthday falls on the cut-off date for eligibility - should drop back down in an attempt to secure some long-awaited glory.
WhoScored.com reveal the top rated players able to play for England's Under-21s this summer from the Premier League, with a number of high-profile omissions. Due to the difficulties with comparing players from England's second tier to those in the top-flight, Championship players have not been selected.
Jack Butland - WhoScored.com rating 6.97
While the rest of the XI here have made at least 10 appearances this season, Jack Butland is the only eligible goalkeeper to have featured in the Premier League in any capacity. His recent displays in the absence of Asmir Begovic for Stoke certainly show that the England Under-21 captain is a safe pair of hands between the posts, with a league-leading save success rate of 90.9% over his three appearances.
Calum Chambers - WhoScored.com rating 7.00
He may have fallen down the pecking order at Arsenal but Calum Chambers' displays at the start of the season were cause for encouragement for Gunners fans. He's picked up a goal and an assist for his club and impressive averages of 2.1 tackles and two interceptions per game were enough to earn a senior England call-up last year, along with a place in this team ahead of the man he effectively replaced at the Emirates, Carl Jenkinson.
Phil Jones - WhoScored.com rating 7.46
His defending may be a little unorthodox, but you can rely on Phil Jones to walk through walls (and headbutt floors) for the good of the team. The defender's impressive rating of 7.46 from WhoScored comes courtesy of a mightily impressive 3.2 interceptions per game, and the United man has been somewhat overlooked when it comes to those that could feature for the Under-21s this summer.
John Stones - WhoScored.com rating 7.17
Now very much a part of Everton's first choice centre-back pairing, John Stones is expected to line-up for Southgate's side next month despite having been called up to the senior squad by Hodgson this season. In a difficult campaign for the Toffees their defensive record improved upon Stones' introduction to the backline, conceding 1.14 goals per game in his 22 appearances compared to 1.6 in his absence in the league.
Luke Shaw - WhoScored.com rating 6.79
Despite an underwhelming debut season at Old Trafford, Luke Shaw takes his place at left-back, albeit with the lowest rating (6.79) of the XI. It's been a tough transition for a player who is still only a teenager, with injuries and a lack of fitness early on in the campaign hampering his progress. Louis van Gaal has stated that he doesn't want the left-back to travel to the Czech Republic but in terms of his future aspirations at senior level it would certainly be beneficial.
Wilfried Zaha - WhoScored.com rating 6.93
After a dismal spell with Manchester United Wilfried Zaha is back on familiar ground and very much enjoying his football again under Alan Pardew at Palace. The 22-year old netted his fourth goal of the campaign as the Eagles ruined Steven Gerrard day at the weekend and he has shown flashes of his incredibly confident best form since returning to Selhurst Park, averaging 2.7 dribbles per game.
