Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold has been warned that he faces a tough battle to resurrect his England career after failing to get any minutes in the recent international break.
Alexander-Arnold had been called up by Gareth Southgate for the Nations League games against Italy and Germany. But the right-back was left on the bench for the defeat in Rome before being dropped from the squad all together for the thrilling draw against Germany.
Instead, Reece James appears to have stamped his claim to be the starting right-back for the Three Lions. It leaves Alexander-Arnold facing a huge task ahead of this winter's World Cup, having been ruled out of the entire Euro 2020 tournament through injury.
