Alan Shearer on England’s Alexander-Arnold Exclusion…
Trent Alexander-Arnold, now dribbling his magic boots at Real Madrid, found himself missing from England’s roster like someone forgot to pick up the milk for tea. Alan Shearer, sounding like a wise old owl in a football jersey, speculated this choice was a stern wake-up slap to his teammates. Having left Liverpool for a Spanish siesta at Madrid, Trent was unexpectedly left warming the bench cushions against Real Oviedo. Despite it all, he’s predicted to be pivotal for Xabi Alonso’s strategies. His Anfield homecoming for the Champions League clash sparks anticipation of an epic showdown!
Addressing Betfair, Shearer compared England’s fresh squad to finding an unexpected pack of biscuits—young, exciting, and who knows which will be a new favorite? Some familiar faces were left out, sending a message that any player could end up Netflix-bingeing instead of playing. The leap to Real wasn’t an easy choice, with Trent wearing his decision like a plaid suit at a black-tie event: bold and perhaps risky. His shift craves new challenges, and even the weight of Madrid’s legendary shirt seems like a stylish backpack he’s ready to carry.
