"I mean, we’ve got a big squad with us and we’ve got four right-backs who are super quality." the England manager told Channel 4, as quoted by Metro. "At the moment Kieran Trippier is playing exceptionally well and Reece James has been one of the outstanding players in the Premier League at the start of the season. "But Trent is a very, very good footballer and that’s why we picked him in the [initial] squad." This comes as yet another snub for Alexander-Arnold. The Liverpool defender was an unused substitute for England during their 1-0 defeat to Italy last week and also didn't make it to the squad during the 4-0 loss to Hungary back in June. The England manager also explained the other decisions he made in the starting line-up versus Germany. John Stones started as the right centre-back while Luke Shaw replaced Bukayo Saka at left wing-back. "We’ve got some good options there [at left-back]," he said. "Luke came into the game well the other night and it is a good opportunity for him tonight. He is a super player. "We thought [Eric Dier] coming back into the side did really well and we wanted to keep that momentum going. He hasn’t been with us for a while.
