Gareth Southgate is set to drop this England superstar for the next match. Another controversial decision! 😳

England’s manager, Gareth Southgate, is under heavy scrutiny for his choices and the team’s performance in the European Championship.

The Three Lions have only secured a single win in the tournament, which was against Serbia.

Disappointing displays against Denmark and Slovenia have led to widespread criticism from fans and former players towards Southgate and the squad.

The Telegraph reports that Manchester United midfielder Kobbie Mainoo is anticipated to start for England after an impressive substitute appearance against Slovenia.

Initially, Trent Alexander-Arnold partnered with Declan Rice in midfield for the first two matches but was replaced by Conor Gallagher in the third game.

However, Gallagher might now make way for Mainoo, who showcased maturity and sharp decision-making during his brief stint on the field.

Southgate has struggled to find the right mix of players in the Euros, frequently playing them out of their natural positions.

Kieran Trippier has been fielded as a left-back, which isn’t his usual role, while Alexander-Arnold has been shifted to midfield from his typical right-back spot.

Phil Foden has been positioned on the left wing, despite being more effective centrally.

With the knockout stages imminent, there’s no room for errors, and Southgate must make decisive choices as the period for experimenting is over.

England’s performance improved noticeably with the introduction of Mainoo, Cole Palmer, and Anthony Gordon late in the game against Slovenia.

Southgate might need to consider starting some of these substitutes in the next match, as key players like Bukayo Saka, Phil Foden, and Declan Rice have not been delivering as expected.
