\n
England\u2019s\u00a0Euro 2024\u00a0squad have the chance to reach the heights the Golden Generation of the 2000s couldn\u2019t when the festival of football kicks off in Germany.<\/strong><\/p>\n
The Three Lions have so often flattered to deceived at major tournaments and no other side embodies that consistent failure more than the side that lined up throughout the noughties. They\u2019ve since been usurped in solid accomplishments by the current crop of players, who have managed top-three finishes at the World Cup and European Championship under manager Gareth Southgate.<\/p>\n
But how would a combined XI between the two generations work? Is there anyway to solve that age-old \u2018Lampard-Gerrard\u2019 conundrum? Don\u2019t worry; in our infinite wisdom here at\u00a090min<\/em>, we\u2019ve assembled an ideally balanced England side that would surely win silverware on the international stage.<\/p>\n\n
GK: Jordan Pickford<\/h2>\n<\/figure>\n

If there\u2019s one thing\u00a0England\u2019s Golden Generation lacked, it was a goalkeeper of equal quality to their outfield counterparts.<\/p>\n
The likes of Paul Robinson and David James gave it a good go before Joe Hart took over, but Jordan Pickford is the only shot-stopper who can argue they\u2019ve been a net positive for the Three Lions at international tournaments in recent years.<\/p>\n
The Everton goalie was crucial in the penalty shootout victory over Colombia at the 2018 World Cup and provided some fruitless heroics in the Euro 2020 final.<\/p>\n
His club form means England fans aren\u2019t totally unanimous with their praise, but Pickford rarely lets his country down and deserves more recognition for it.<\/p>\n
\n
RB: Kyle Walker<\/h2>\n<\/figure>\n

Kyle Walker remarkably seems to be getting better with age and there\u2019s no sign yet that he\u2019s slowing down when it comes to a foot race.<\/p>\n
The former Tottenham Hotspur defender has had to overcome criticism from his own manager at Manchester City but his physical attributes mean even Pep Guardiola can\u2019t overlook the 34-year-old when it comes to picking his strongest club XI.<\/p>\n
He was tasked with battling Kylian Mbappe at the 2022 World Cup and held up admirably, even if Les Bleus progressed at his side\u2019s expense.<\/p>\n
England have incredible options at right-back in the modern age and it\u2019s a testament to Walker\u2019s longevity that he\u2019s still ahead of the likes of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Kieran Trippier and Reece James in the pecking order.<\/p>\n
\n
CB: John Terry<\/h2>\n<\/figure>\n
Terry was noted good pal Wayne Bridge \/ Stewart Kendall\/Allstar\/GettyImages<\/p>\n
Chelsea legend John Terry was a hard-as-nails defender during his heyday, often throwing his head at the fiercest shots to protect his goal.<\/p>\n
A mainstay in the Three Lions team for nine years, Terry racked up 78 appearances at international level and was named in the FIFA World Cup All-Star Team in 2006.<\/p>\n
His off-field \u2013\u00a0erm<\/em>\u00a0\u2013 exploits did a fair bit of harm to the England setup, but there\u2019s little doubt that he has a better defensive legacy than modern-day alternatives John Stones and Marc Guehi.<\/p>\n\n
CB: Rio Ferdinand<\/h2>\n<\/figure>\n
Ferdinand scored at the 2002 World Cup \/ Richard Sellers\/Allstar\/GettyImages<\/p>\n
He might be more familiar to fans for screaming \u2018Ballon d\u2019Or\u2019 during the Champions League final or very respectfully not walking on Real Madrid\u2019s badge in a totally unscripted video for his social media, but there wasn\u2019t much to criticise Rio Ferdinand for during his playing career.<\/p>\n
The former\u00a0Manchester United\u00a0defender is viewed as one of the first archetypal modern centre-backs, boasting the pace to match rapid strikers and a continental coolness on the ball.<\/p>\n
He formed a strong partnership with Terry before their relationship became non-existent after the Chelsea man allegedly racially abused Ferdinand\u2019s brother, Anton.<\/p>\n
\n
LB: Ashley Cole<\/h2>\n<\/figure>\n
Cole is one of the greatest left-backs of all time \/ Stewart Kendall\/Allstar\/GettyImages<\/p>\n
Luke Shaw provided one of the great England moments in recent memory when he opened the scoring in the Euro 2020 final before things went south, but he isn\u2019t at the same level Ashley Cole operated at during his playing career.<\/p>\n
The former Chelsea and Arsenal left-back rarely put a foot wrong on the international scene, shutting down a young Cristiano Ronaldo during Euro 2004 with a masterful performance that wasn\u2019t out of step from his regular outings at club level.<\/p>\n
Whereas other England stars from the Golden Generation clearly didn\u2019t pull their weight, that accusation can\u2019t be levelled at Cole.<\/p>\n
\n
DM: Declan Rice<\/h2>\n<\/figure>\n
Rice has become a leader in England\u2019s midfield \/ Frank Augstein \u2013 Pool\/GettyImages<\/p>\n
Declan Rice isn\u2019t an out-and-out defensive midfielder, having shown his lung-bursting desire to get into the box first with West Ham United and now Arsenal.<\/p>\n
However, England\u2019s Golden Generation failed to function without a destroyer in the middle of the park and Rice\u2019s tenacity and desire in defence may well have helped get the best out of Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard.<\/p>\n
The former Chelsea youth product has the chance to build an international legacy greater than those two aforementioned greats and, given the rate that he has improved at, only a fearless fan would bet against him doing so.<\/p>\n
\n
CM: Steven Gerrard<\/h2>\n<\/figure>\n
Gerrard scored some iconic goals for England \/ Ross Kinnaird\/GettyImages<\/p>\n
A one-club man in the Premier League, Steven Gerrard so often pulled England through poor performances with a match-winner from distance or a gut-busting display in midfield.<\/p>\n
The former\u00a0Liverpool\u00a0star captained the Three Lions in 38 of his 114 international appearances, playing at three European Championships and three World Cups, with his first goal for his country arriving in the memorable 5-1 thumping of Germany in 2001.<\/p>\n
His managers could never work out the balance alongside the next midfielder, but Gerrard was so often a driving force for England and a player who could always be relied upon to deliver.<\/p>\n
\n
CM: Frank Lampard<\/h2>\n<\/figure>\n

Oh god, Gerrard and Frank Lampard in the same midfield? We\u2019re doing this again, are we? It famously didn\u2019t work the first time!<\/p>\n
Whether the notoriously incompatible duo would function with a deep-lying Rice is another question entirely, but Lampard\u2019s quality as a box-to-box goalscorer surely would have been just as evident in the modern game as it was back in the 2000s and 2010s.<\/p>\n
The Chelsea legend was one of few players who could come away from the 2010 World Cup debacle with a semblance of credit, having a legitimate goal not given in the last-16 exit to Germany, and is England\u2019s joint-tenth highest men\u2019s goalscorer with 29 in 106 matches.<\/p>\n
\n
AM: Jude Bellingham<\/h2>\n<\/figure>\n
England have very high hopes for Bellingham \/ Soccrates Images\/GettyImages<\/p>\n
Jude Bellingham is still in the infancy of his career but has already achieved so much. His performances at the 2022 World Cup displayed a maturity well beyond his years and he has since become a superstar thanks to a breakout debut campaign with\u00a0Real Madrid.<\/p>\n
The former Borussia Dortmund ace is already one of the first names on the team sheet and his neat close control, dynamic playing style and knack for sniffing out goals has hopes high that he can finally lead England to a second major international trophy.<\/p>\n
Bellingham has become a leader of the current squad at only 20 years of age and showed in the 2024 Champions League final that he can perform when it matters most.<\/p>\n
\n
ST: Wayne Rooney<\/h2>\n<\/figure>\n

For a long time, Wayne Rooney was the player responsible for hauling England through qualifying campaigns to reach international tournaments. It rarely worked out on the big stage and he wasn\u2019t always innocent, but being the nation\u2019s top scorer for a good eight years counts for a lot.<\/p>\n
The former United forward was a phenomenon during Euro 2004, bullying the likes of France, Switzerland and Croatia with his searing strength, surprising strength and ruthless finishing.<\/p>\n
He was the country\u2019s poster boy for a long time and played a large role in removing damaging cliques from what was at times a toxic dressing room atmosphere.<\/p>\n
\n
ST: Harry Kane<\/h2>\n<\/figure>\n
Kane\u2019s England legacy is undeniable \/ Robbie Jay Barratt \u2013 AMA\/GettyImages<\/p>\n
Harry Kane wasn\u2019t always destined for greatness, but he took chance after chance when he was presented with him and has since become England\u2019s leading goalscorer across both men\u2019s and women\u2019s teams.<\/p>\n
The former Tottenham Hotspur striker was a ruthless finisher at the start of his career but has since added layers to his game the likes of Michael Owen and Emile Heskey could only dream of.<\/p>\n
He ended up missing a crucial penalty in the 2022 World Cup exit to France but Kane will be hungry to make amends with a bucket-load of goals in Germany.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n
