Fabio Capello called Manchester United's youngsters Tom Cleverley, Phil Jones and Chris Smalling to join the 25 man squad of England for the Euro 2012 qualifiers against Wales and Bulgaria.
The trio have been in impressive form for Sir Alex Ferguson's men in the opening games of the season, including in Sunday's 8-2 mauling of Arsenal, as United deal without usual defensive pair Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic, who are both injured.
Meanwhile, Fulham keeper David Stockdale has been named in the squad again despite spending the season on loan at Champonship side Ipswich.
England regulars Andy Carroll, Wayne Rooney, Jermain Defoe and Darren Bent make up the attacking options for Capello with the likes of in-form Ashley Young and Stewart Downing likely to be manning the wings.
England regulars such as Frank Lampard, John Terry, Wayne Rooney and Joe Hart are all included in the squad, while West Ham’s Scott Parker is also included in the squad despite having dropped down a division as the Hammers suffered relegation last season.
England will travel to Bulgaria with a squad with a lot of young guns on Friday September 2.
