He has made five appearances, scoring one goal and creating an assist. Meanwhile, Alexander-Arnold has had a similar run of form, making seven appearances and scoring two goals. It was the Reds right-back who beat the Chelsea defender for a place in the PFA Premier League team of the season for the 2021-23 campaign. Both are likely to challenge one another for a starting berth under Gareth Southgate in the England team at the 2022 FIFA World Cup. Their current form will go a long way towards Southgate deciding which of the two will be his right-back for the tournament in Qatar.

Chelsea right-back James defends Liverpool s Alexander-Arnold

The duo will battle for a right-back role at the World Cup James has defended Alexander-Arnold in the past amidst criticism over his defending with mistakes having crept into the Liverpool right-backs game. He said (via Liverpool Echo): "I make mistakes as well. I gave away a penalty against Hungary so we are both still learning our trade. Liverpool have 95% of the ball and he defends less than I have to. People have a lot of stuff to say and don't really know the game. Trent is a great player." On trying to get into the England team at the World Cup, James added: "I'll try everything I can [to be first choice]. Only my performances will be able to prove what I can bring. In these games and building into next season I'll hopefully be able to show that I'm ready to play every game."
