“None of what happened in the group stage surprised me. I would never have played Trent Alexander-Arnold in midfield and expected that, when the experiment didn’t work, Gareth would try Conor Gallagher.

Kobbie Mainoo is expected to line up alongside Declan Rice in midfield against Slovakia as England aim to keep their EUROs dream alive.
