England manager Gareth Southgate has some headaches ahead of their final group stage match against Slovenia on Tuesday.
The performance in Thursday’s 1-1 draw with Denmark in the second group game was criticized and Southgate described Trent Alexander-Arnold playing in midfield as an “experiment”.
Should he be left out, it would mean Conor Gallagher, who has played in both games so far, Kobbie Mainoo or Adam Wharton would come into midfield as Southgate looks to improve the level of control his side have during matches.
Kieran Trippier, playing at left-back in place of the injured Luke Shaw, missed nine games at the end of the Premier League season and played more during the tournament than initially planned.
Trippier was seen drinking pickle juice during the first group game against Serbia when he felt cramps and there was hope that Shaw would be fit enough to play now.
Shaw has not trained with his teammates in the last two sessions and has followed an individual program, but returned to the field on Monday.
If Trippier is rested for the final group game, BBC Sport understands there is a strong possibility that Aston Villa defender Ezri Konsa could step into that role.
Joe Gomez also played in that position for Liverpool and played there in the matches leading up to the tournament for England.
