Eni Aluko says things have to change after England were let down by their 1-1 pick against Denmark.
Eni Aluko, a journalist and former Lionesses sun, has revealed which person she believes Gareth Southgate did depose for his England team's final party game against Slovenia on Tuesday.
Despite now sitting leading of Group C on four points, the Three Lions were generally uninteresting during their 1- 1 draw against Denmark on Thursday, with Harry Kane's opener cancelled out by Morten Hjulmand's lengthy- range strike.
With the final group-stage fight on Tuesday then in full swing, Aluko has weighed in on who she thinks Southgate might choose to avoid, with many people still missing, including Adam Wharton, Ivan Toney, and Cole Palmer.
" I think whatever happens, the shift may be Trent Alexander- Arnold", Aluko told ITV Sport on Saturday. " I ca n't see him playing in midfield again, the experiment, that's the word]Gareth ] Southgate has used, I ca n't see it happening again.
" What does that mean, does Trent play or does he walk over wide in a 3- 4- 3 and enjoy as a right wing- again? Let's see how that looks and how that functions."
Southgate himself acknowledged that England are struggling without a suitable substitute for Kalvin Phillips, who was a key player for his nation's success in the Euro 2020 last. But following his walk from Leeds United to Manchester City, Phillips ' form has dwindled considerably.
" We know it is an test- we do n't had a healthy alternative for Kalvin Phillips- but we are trying some unique things," the 53- year- ancient told ITV Sport after England's 1- 1 draw with Denmark". At the moment, we are never flowing as we would like, that's for certain."
Although Kobbie Mainoo and Conor Gallagher have since been put to the test in Germany as options, most fans believe that something needs to change quickly for England at Euro 2024. Time will only determine how Southgate chooses to line up future month, but a win against Slovenia might be a big boost.
