Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher disagree over Trent Alexander-Arnold’s status in the England team
During the program, Neville and Carragher clashed about whether Trent Alexander-Arnold should start for England at the Euros. Neville pointed at the options at Gareth Southgate’s disposal in the right-back position to justify picking someone other than Alexander-Arnold.
Neville claimed Atletico Madrid’s Kieran Trippier is a better option in the five-man defence that Southgate has used over the past few years.
Jamie Carragher, on the other hand, labeled Neville’s views as ’embarrassing'.
The Liverpool left-back’s omission from the England squad which played the World Cup qualifiers last week has been a topic of debate in the media. England manager Gareth Southgate defended his decision and claimed that Alexander-Arnold’s level had dipped in the last year.
