Summary

Trent Alexander-Arnold HAS been named in the England squad that will compete at Euro 2020 this summer, with Gareth Southgate selecting the Liverpool full-back in his 26-player contingent. Guy Clarke is joined by Paul Gorst and Matt Addison as they discuss why Southgate appears to have changed his mind after Alexander-Arnold was left out of the last England squad in March, plus why it makes so much sense for the 22-year-old to be selected. They also debate whether Alexander-Arnold could be used in a midfield role for his country, which has been suggested by some as a major factor in his inclusion in the squad, with Reece James, Kieran Trippier and Kyle Walker also all picked by the England boss. England's Euro 2020 campaign begins on Sunday, June 13 when they take on Croatia at Wembley.

0:08.0	It's the Blood Red Podcast, courtesy of the Liverpool Echo. I'm Guy Clark, welcome along.
0:13.6	Gareth Southgate comes to his senses late in the day to hand Trent a Euro 2020 call-up alongside
0:19.4	Red Skipper Jordan Henderson.
0:21.2	Coming up, we'll be discussing the selection why there was any debate anyway,
0:24.8	and the experiment Southgate could be set to play with clock keeping a keen eye. Here to get into all of that,
0:30.6	we have our Liverpool Correspondent Pool Gorse and our blood red writer
0:34.1	Matt Addison. Gorsley come to you straight up and I suppose the whole thing about this
0:39.4	Trent Alexander Arnold debate and it being the headline news of him making the
0:43.4	England 26 man squad for the euros is the fact he was dropped for March
0:47.4	when quite frankly he didn't need to be anyway?
0:49.4	No he didn't I mean he did suffer a different form. I think, I don't think many people will kind of argue that one, but there's certainly a context to it, the fact the year in Clop was forced to name 20.
1:05.0	I mean I think it needs repeating those in 2 zero when you think about it 2 zero different
1:11.1	to back partnerships this season. you know, it's incredible if the theory even
1:16.0	able to get near that number, you know, when you think of how limited Liverpool of, you know, the numbers wise, you know, Jordan Henderson's been playing
1:26.7	in there, Fabinos being playing in there for most of the season.
1:29.4	It's incredible. But yeah, I mean, I think any fallback in the world would suffer a different form when they
1:35.3	constantly being asked to play with different defenders to different players who they're not used to
1:39.9	playing with weekend we can we count and also with the fact that there was no kind of adjustments made for that by club,
1:47.6	it was very much just, you know, Math Phillips and Reese Williams are playing now instead of
1:52.3	the age of Antike and Joe Bowles but the
