Jamie Redknapp and Gary Neville clashed when discussing Trent Alexander-Arnold's England role on Sunday evening.
The pair were joined by Jamie Carragher, Karen Carney and host David Jones in a World Cup special on Sky Sports, covering England's prospects for the tournament, their ideal starting lineups and, specifically, the role of Liverpool right-back Alexander-Arnold. The 24-year-old has never been fully appreciated by fans of the national side and has come under intense scrutiny recently for his role in a poor start to the Premier League campaign.
Southgate left Alexander-Arnold out of the matchday squad for September's Nations League game against Germany in a move that threw the right-backs World Cup spot into doubt. But an unfortunate injury to Chelsea's Reece James all-but guaranteed the Reds star a place in the 26-man travelling party, as confirmed on Thursday.
