I dunno. It increasingly looks like a jittery defence will be our downfall.
Obviously he's not a VVD or Rio type/level CB that can calm a defense down just by himself, but he is still very effective and more relaxed there than all the other options bar Stones. He's comfortable in possession, can actually play forward and is used to being pressed.
People have short memories. Wasn't that long ago we were questioning whether moving him to right back was the right call as he's been so good alongside Gabriel.
Plus he could provide DM cover were something to happen to Rice mid tournament. His versatility could be so useful. Anyway, it's not happening whilst Southgate and co are around.

I agree on his quality, but at Arsenal he's part of a well oiled machine and he has studied his role and honed it to a fine art. He doesn't have that experience with England and I just can't see his being available making any difference, also I dont think Southgate would pick him.

He's been excellent everywhere he has been so I can't see any reason England would be different. But yeah, it's not happening so pretty irrelevant.

Even Saliba is getting criticised
"William Saliba getting a rare start in Marseille, even though the coach had said beforehand that the Arsenal player “does things he doesn’t like”"

A mate of mine was modelling his already on Facebook, ready to go to Germany. I wonder if he'll get any stick for it...
