Gareth Southgate has been criticised by fans after naming the one player that England do not have a natural replacement for at Euro 2024.
The performance was typified by a lack of cohesion and urgency, with England struggling to exert major influence over the game in the second half especially.Southgate alluded to the position being an issue for the Three Lions during his post-match interview, but fans were left unimpressed over which player he mentioned.
"We're trying some different things and at the moment we're not flowing as we would like, that's for sure."The midfielder has had limited amounts of Premier League football since joining Manchester City for £42.5 million, with injuries andSouthgate instead picked Alexander-Arnold, Gallagher, Kobbie Mainoo and Adam Wharton as midfield options alongside Rice - meaning fans have been left confused by his comment.
