Liverpool fullback Alexander-Arnold urged to quit England: Trippier claim is a joke | OneFootball

Liverpool fullback Trent Alexander-Arnold should quit England if he isn't selected for the World Cup.

So says former Aston Villa captain Gabby Agbonlahor, who insists Alexander-Arnold should not have been dropped for the 3-3 draw with Germany.

“If I was Trent, I would retire from international duty if I don't go to the World Cup," the 35-year-old told talkSport. “What's the point of going away on these international breaks when you can stay with your club, rest and get prepare yourself for Liverpool.

“We've seen players in the past retiring from England in the past because they weren't getting the opportunities. It wouldn't surprise me if he did.

“For (Gareth) Southgate to come out and say (Kieran) Trippier is a better all round player than Trent is an insult.

“I do like Trippier but Trent is an all-round better player.

“(Kyle) Walker and (Reece) James for me are better but not Trippier. The joke's over Gareth."
