Gary Neville drops Kieran Trippier England hint after Newcastle star was benched by Gareth Southgate

Gary Neville expects Kyle Walker to continue as England's right back ahead of their World Cup knockout tie with Senegal. Kieran Trippier started the first two Group B fixtures, but was replaced by the Manchester City star for the victory over Wales on Tuesday night.

The Three Lions secured top spot with a comfortable 3-0 win over their neighbours, courtesy of a brace from Marcus Rashford and a strike from Phil Foden. Gareth Southgate made four changes for the encounter, with Walker making his first start of the competition after recovering from a groin injury.

England have so far setup with a back four, although previous tournaments show Southgate could switch to a back five should they reach the latter stages. The Three Lions are on course for a quarter-final date with world champions France, should both sides successfully negotiate their round-of-16 ties with Senegal and Poland.
