England manager Gareth Southgate has spoken out on his decision not to use Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold during this international break.
The Three Lions played fixtures against Italy and Germany, and Southgate was surprisingly reluctant to give opportunities to those outside of his regular plans.
Alexander-Arnold was one of them, and when asked about this decision, Southgate didn’t really give the most convincing explanation.
“I mean, we’ve got a big squad with us and we’ve got four right-backs who are super quality,” Southgate said.

“But Trent is a very, very good footballer and that’s why we picked him in the [initial] squad.”
