No Maximilian Kilman either…
The Wolves defender has been impressive this season but does not get a place in this squad.

🏴 Coady in but no Kilman. Shame, he surely deserves a look. Southgate watched him against West Ham and Palace and unfortunately that’s when he dipped a bit and was left out the team.
The guy still hasn’t made 50 pro league starts and look how good he’s been. His time will come

Klopp comes out swinging on Alexander-Arnold
“Apart from the diagonal balls to Martinelli, which Trent defended incredibly — Martinelli is such a talented boy — it’s really tricky,” Klopp said.

With Ben Chilwell out long term and Luke Shaw out of form, there is a question mark over who Gareth Southgate should select at left-back.
