Add Ben Chilwell to the list. The list of players that, if they were in a team together competing at the World Cup in full fitness, would probably be favourites to win the thing.
Mike Maignan is in goal, Reece James is on the right, Raphael Varane and Ronald Araujo in the middle. The midfield itself, wow, Paul Pogba and N'Golo Kante - the keystone of the reigning champions - and Georgino Wijnaldum, who Jurgen Klopp probably misses quite a lot.
Up front, Timo Werner, Son Heung-Min and Diogo Jota. Some team. None of the players are likely to be at the tournament. This doesn't include more players that are serious doubts, Kyle Walker will likely be in recovery, Manuel Neuer too. Kalvin Phillips isn't certain and Richarlison hasn't played in three weeks at Tottenham.
