Gary Lineker makes Kyle Walker point that could benefit Kieran Trippier vs Senegal

Gary Lineker has suggested that England should rest Kyle Walker against Senegal on Sunday to ensure that he is fully fit to face France in the quarter-final if they progress.

Walker started England's 3-0 victory over Wales on Tuesday and played 57 minutes in his first appearance since suffering a groin injury in the Manchester Derby in October.

Newcastle full-back Kieran Trippier started the opening two matches against Iran and USA respectively, and Lineker insists that England shouldn't risk Walker in the next game.
