'I don’t think Trent goes. I don’t think that Southgate will pick him.' LFC
Danny Murphy reckons England manager Gareth Southgate will not select Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold in his World Cup squad.Chelsea’s Reece James, Newcastle United’s Kieran Trippier and Manchester City’s Kyle Walker have all been favoured by the Three Lions boss in the past.
Alexander-Arnold is comfortably the best going forward out of all four but is also the worst defensively. Southgate can also choose from the likes of Kyle Walker-Peters, Benjamin White and James Justin when looking at potential right-backs to call up.Sometimes it has been pretty harsh on the 23-year-old, though he has been exposed on multiple occasions this season.
The England boss has a huge decision to make and the omission of Alexander-Arnold would not be a huge surprise given his poor start to 2022/23.Former Liverpool midfielder Murphy has said he does not think the current Reds player will be on the plane to Qatar.
