Trent Alexander-Arnold sends three-word England message after World Cup exit

Trent Alexander-Arnold insists England will be back after they were knocked out of the World Cup by France in the quarter-finals.

The Liverpool right-back was an unused substitute as France took the lead thanks to Aurelien Tchouameni in the first half before Harry Kane 's penalty equalised proceedings in the second period.

Former Premier League striker Olivier Giroud put France back in the lead while Kane had the chance to make it 2-2, but he blazed his 85th minute penalty over Hugo Loris' crossbar.

The 24-year-old Reds man played just half an hour for Gareth Southgate's side after coming on as a second half substitute in England's 3-0 victory over Wales in the group stage.

Alexander-Arnold posted on his Instagram account tonight: "We'll be back", alongside a picture of himself comforting Marcus Rashford with Phil Foden in the background.

Fans in the comments of the post were calling out for Alexander-Arnold to have played more. One follower said: "Hope Southgate let you play more than five minutes for the next time."

Another supporter simply said: "Should've played more" while another fan added: "You deserved better."

Liverpool target Jude Bellingham told fans to "stick with us" when signing autographs as England departed Qatar on Sunday morning.
