Gary Neville believes Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold is among the England players who are "respected" in the world of football.
Despite what the former Manchester United defender thinks, Alexander-Arnold played just a total of half an hour for England as they made it to the quarter-finals of the World Cup.
The Liverpool number 66 has won it all in the club football by the age of 24 and is the current record holder for assists for defenders in the Premier League.

Neville named Liverpool target Jude Bellingham alongside Alexander-Arnold when talking about English players who have earned respect in their positions.
"I can see now that English players are respected," Neville told Sky Sports. "International players really respect the likes of [Jude] Bellingham, [Phil] Foden, [Jack] Grealish, [Trent] Alexander-Arnold and other players in that position.
"I think that’s been designed by a very good system in the last 10 years and I think it’s right that we try wherever possible to promote English coaches moving forward."
