Where do you play him? I’m all for having him start, he’s a brilliant player, but he isn’t a perfect fit for the way Southgate sets up, especially against good teams. He plays RB for Liverpool but Trippier and Walker are better defensively, which Southgate covets. He can and probably should be in midfield against lower ranked opposition but against a France or Argentina, you probably want someone better positionally and off the ball.

He’s young though and when Walker and Trippier decline over the next couple years he can probably try and cement himself a starting place against the oft-injured Reece James, unless Livramento or someone else explodes into the team
