England’s big problem yet to be solved after Alexander-Arnold’s midfield audition

Associated Press  

GELSENKIRCHEN, Germany — England’s big problem is yet to be solved. For the team’s group opener against Serbia on Sunday, Southgate chose to play Trent Alexander-Arnold — a right back for Liverpool — as Declan Rice’s partner in the middle of midfield. That, if England was to play an elite European team, this new combination would be exposed, like Southgate’s team can be in the biggest games against top-class midfields. I wouldn’t have him anywhere near the middle of the pitch.” Another pundit, former Manchester United midfielder Roy Keane, has predicted Alexander-Arnold would get “found out” playing midfield against the big teams at the Euros. One match against Serbia hasn’t given a definitive answer, but Southgate may look around for other solutions to what remains England’s outstanding concern.
