Team News: England make two changes for Germany clash

England make two changes for Germany clash

England manager Gareth Southgate has made just two changes for Monday's UEFA Nations League clash with Germany, as John Stones and Luke Shaw return to the first XI.

The Three Lions have already been relegated from League A following last week's 1-0 loss to Italy, where Stones missed out due to suspension for an accumulation of bookings.

The Manchester City man is now back and displaces Kyle Walker in the first XI, with Nick Pope, Harry Maguire and Eric Dier holding their spots in the backline.

Southgate elected to start Bukayo Saka at left-wing back for the defeat to Italy, but the Arsenal man has now dropped to the bench after a disappointing evening at San Siro.

Manchester United's Shaw gets the nod over Ben Chilwell on that side, while Reece James, Jude Bellingham and Declan Rice are all featuring from the off at Wembley as well.

An unchanged attacking line will see Phil Foden, Harry Kane and Raheem Sterling aim to break England's barren run without a goal, and the Three Lions could go four games in a row without scoring for the first time since 1981 here.

Ivan Toney is on the bench ahead of a possible England debut, while Trent Alexander-Arnold, Fikayo Tomori, Jarrod Bowen, James Ward-Prowse and the suspended Jack Grealish are not involved.

England starting lineup: Pope; Stones, Dier, Maguire; James, Rice, Bellingham, Shaw; Foden, Kane, Sterling

Subs: Henderson, Ramsdale, Trippier, Walker, Coady, Guehi, Chilwell, Henderson, Mount, Saka, Toney, Abraham
