    Richard Baxter you are right. It all looks rather rosy regarding English football at national level. From some complaining of not having a big enough pool choose from, is the senior squad now spoilt for choice?

    Thank you for joining us. The senior team are in action in Italy on Tuesday - come back then for more live text action.

    BBC's predicted England starting XI for Euro 2020

    We've been asking who you think should get a place in England's 2020 squad (assuming they qualify) here's a few more to round the evening off.

    Kwadwo Boadu: I think Oxlade Chamberlain will be in rather than Nathan Redmond and I would not be surprised if Jon Flanagan will be in rather than Luke Shaw.

    Adam Smith: Is it too much of a punt to call Dele Alli into the squad?

    Richard Baxter: With all the suggestions being made whatever happens by 2020 it looks like England will have a top squad.

    England U21 manager Gareth Southgate on BT Sport: "It was 25 minutes before we started to play with any belief. We were a bit passive in the first 25. It's good we got response we did. They looked a very good side. This is why we wanted these games. That's the standard we're going to face in the summer.

    "There's a lot of food for thought in the game. We won't win the U21 European Championship if we play like how we did in the first 25 minutes."

    England forward Danny Ings on BT Sport: "Our mentality got us through - in the first 20 minutes, we didn't play our game. We ended the half well, then in the second half we showed great character to come from behind."

    England defender Carl Jenkinson on BT Sport: "It's a big win, but we don't get carried away. The big one is in the summer."

    Ex-England defender Jonathan Woodgate

    "It just shows how good England's team spirit is to come back twice and win - they're definitely together in the dressing room.

    "I thought Germany were the better side tonight, but England got the win - if they can do that and go on to win the Euros we'll be happy."

    England goalscorer Nathan Redmond on BT Sport: "We've beaten one of the best teams we will possibly face in this summer's U21 European Championship finals. At half time the gaffer let us know that the first half was not good enough. My goal took a bit of a lucky deflection, but I'll take it.

    On the spirit of the squad: "When we score, we celebrate together. It showed tonight on the pitch."

  11. CLOSE!published at 21:33 British Summer Time 30 March 2015

    What a miss! That should have been the fourth. James Ward-Prowse's tame shot from 20 yards bounces up and catches Marc-Andre ter Stegen by surprise. The keeper parries into the path of Danny Ings, whocan only find the Barcelona man's gloves with his follow-up. The Burnley forward should have scored.

    More of your 2020 selections, surely James Ward-Prowse is worth a shout?

    Steve Reed: Are we writing off Daniel Sturridge to injury or is 31 too old to be an international striker now?

    Rich: I would have Aaron Cresswell at left back. Why he's been overlooked for a place in the current England squad is beyond me. One of the signings of this Premier League season without doubt.

    Michael Koziol: Surely Butland will surpass Hart by then? What about Hughes? Rooney? I'd go for Nick Powell too. And Ox ahead of Redmond.

  13. CLOSE!published at 21:29 British Summer Time 30 March 2015

    Germany desperately look for an equaliser. The ball falls to Serge Gnabry on the edge of the area, but the Arsenal man fires his shot high, wide and not very handsome.

  14. Postpublished at 21:28 British Summer Time 30 March 2015

    Ex-England defender Jonathan Woodgate

    "Great finish by James Ward-Prowse, he just passed that in to the goal. Jenkinson could have gone on his own, but he passed it to Ward-Prowse and what a finish. I've been watching this game and thinking Germany were the best team, but what do I know? Credit where credit is due they've battled to get back in to the game tonight."

    Arsenal's Calum Chambers comes on for Reading's James Forster-Caskey. Chambers will sit just in front of the backline. There are four minutes remaining.

  16. GOALpublished at 21:23 British Summer Time 30 March 2015

    Who can stop the England juggernaut? What an incredible turnaround. After being largely outplayed by Germany in this half, they now lead. Carl Jenkinson, who provided the assist for the opener, threads a ball through to Southampton James Ward-Prowse, who steadies himself before slotting past Marc-Andre ter Stegen in the Germany goal from 12 yards. That's Barcelona's Ter Stegen.

    Ex-England defender Jonathan Woodgate

    "He deserves that Redmond, he's been England's best player by a big way and will be happy with that. It's unbelievable that it's 2-2 now - I don't think we've been up to Germany's standard but we're level."

  18. GOALpublished at 21:20 British Summer Time 30 March 2015

    I told you he's a future England senior player (see 19:04 entry). Nathan Redmond fires in the equaliser with an angled shot from 12 yards that takes a slight deflection. Game on!
