As England reached their first men's major tournament final in 55 years, we asked you who should start for the Three Lions in Sunday's Euro 2020 final against Italy at Wembley?
With Gareth Southgate's side just one victory away from winning the European Championship on home soil, the majority of you think he should stick with the same XI he picked against Denmark.
Once again the formation is a 4-3-3, with 60.66% of you wanting to see that. So who makes the cut? And who misses out?
Goalkeeper
Jordan Pickford was selected in more than 90% of your teams. The Everton goalkeeper has conceded only one goal so far at Euro 2020 and has kept five clean sheets, two more than any other keeper.
Defenders
Harry Maguire and John Stones remain your preferred partnership in front of Pickford. Maguire is the most selected player overall, while Stones is fifth.
Either side of them, Kyle Walker is your first-choice right-back (73.01 %) with Luke Shaw favoured to start on the left (73.82 %).
Midfielders
Declan Rice (33.36 %), Kalvin Phillips (33.88 %) and Mason Mount (16.7 %) all retain their places in midfield and are once again selected by you to start in front of the back four.
Attackers
Three Lions top scorer Harry Kane is the second-most selected player overall. After failing to score in England's three group games, skipper Kane now has four goals, one behind the tournament's joint-top goalscorers - Cristiano Ronaldo of Portugal and the Czech Republic's Patrik Schick.
Raheem Sterling was the most selected player on both the left and right side of the attack. The Manchester City forward received considerably more picks on the left-hand side, so Bukayo Saka makes the team on the right as he was the second-most selected player in that position.
And while Jack Grealish was a popular choice overall, he wasn't selected as the first or second pick in any position, so just misses out on your XI.
You can still pick your England XI below, but your selection won't be counted towards the result. Don't forget to share your picks on social media using #bbcfootball.
