It's been just over seven years since Danny Welbeck last pulled on a Three Lions shirt.
Since then, he's had spells of good form, but hasn't really had anyone putting his name in the hat for another inclusion.
However, that has now changed for the 34-year-old, after a run of three consecutive matches finding the back of the net.
Across his last ten games, he has six goals, against Manchester United, Leeds and a couple versus Chelsea and Newcastle.

His six Premier League strikes are the most from any other English attacker this season, with Burnley's Jaidon Anthony in second with four and Jarrod Bowen in third with three.
Ollie Watkins - England's back-up striker - only has one, whilst other strikers such as Eddie Nketiah and Dominic Calvert-Lewin are also on that number.
Obviously Harry Kane will be taking the number one spot, but no one can justify currently that Watkins deserves the place ahead of him.
With six days to go until Thomas Tuchel picks his England side, is a 43rd cap inbound?
