Alexander-Arnold makes his case and three other things we learned about England

Trent Alexander-Arnold demonstrated his value to England during a recent international break, recording an assist in two starts and showcasing his defensive prowess with 15 recoveries and being dribbled past only once. The Real Madrid defender's impressive performances have raised questions about his place in the team, as Declan Rice feels the pressure to step up following Scott's standout display against Croatia.

England's young talent, Alex Scott, made a strong case for himself during his debut, displaying energy and quality in both possession and without the ball. Manager Thomas Tuchel acknowledged that Rice may feel threatened by Scott's impressive performance, which caught the eye of the German tactician.

Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham continue to shine for England, with Kane scoring in each of the team's four games, equaling and breaking several records along the way. Bellingham has been compared to England's best player of all time by his teammate Jude Bellingham, outshining Barcelona midfielder Rodri in the recent match against Spain. Manager Thomas Tuchel expressed his belief that Kane and Bellingham can replicate their exceptional form in higher-stakes matches.
