The Three Lions ' last party game on Tuesday is expected to feature changes, according to the former England combo.
Without conceding a game before Tuesday's last Group C game against Slovenia, England were able to qualify for the last 16 of Euro 2024 on Monday evening. However, there is still a lot at stake in the Cologne fight despite having secured a spot in the finishers.
First of all, Gareth Southgate will want to prevent placing in second place in the group because that would leave Germany waiting in round two. The England manager wants to see a far better performance from the disappointing game against Denmark on Thursday, which will give his part some speed heading into the tournament's business end.
According to reports in the media, this will likely result in changes to the starting lineup as Conor Gallagher is expected to step in to take Trent Alexander- Arnold in the starting lineup as Southgate calls moment on his Bristol man's career in central midfield. With Gary Lineker, a former England international, admitting he feels sorry for the 25-year-old, Lineker has already expressed his regrets.
" I do think a little for Trent Alexander- Arnold", Lineker said on the BBC. He seems to have been hung out a little bit, I believe. His owner's said he's been an study and now it looks like an experiment that's never worked.
Also when a team is playing well, it's pretty difficult to play in a new location. However, it becomes very challenging when a group is struggling and disjointed, disjointed, and unable to get up the ball. Because of his incredible talent, I feel for him.
Wayne Rooney echoed these sentiments, noting that Alexander-Arnold should have been tried in the starting lineup.
The former Everton and Manchester United star said," I've been very critical of Trent." I enjoy playing Trent as a full-back, right-back, or right-back when the ball is coming in at the right moment, but it's so much different from playing him as a full-back in international sports.
" I've said it many times, I would n't have played him there. But he's got Mainoo, he's got Wharton. You get your height with Gordon and Foden if I play Jude in the middle following to Rice.
In a Tuesday 8pm kick-off match against Slovenia, England is aware that a victory would ensure leading area regardless of how the Danes fare against Serbia in the other Group C match.
