Gareth Southgate questioned over decisions not to use Phil Foden and Trent Alexander-Arnold against the USA ENG FIFAWorldCup
Trent is yet to make it on the pitch at this World Cup
But former England star and one-time assistant Neville was surprised to see Southgate not make more use of an abundance of talent on the bench.Speaking at half time, the Manchester United legend said: “For Phil Foden not to be playing in England’s starting XI is a real shame. On the decision to not bring on Foden, Southgate told talkSPORT: “I didn’t think it was a game for Phil inside because a lot more defensive work was required against a very strong midfield you’re playing against.
Neville also suggested that England would’ve benefited from Liverpool right-back Alexander-Arnold being on the pitch.He said: “We’ve got a couple of talents there sat on the bench in Trent Alexander-Arnold and Foden, in terms of opening up a game Alexander-Arnold has some of the best deliveries you’ll ever see from a full-back.
