Trent Alexander-Arnold admitted he’s “not fussed” where he plays for England following their win over Bosnia-Herzegovina on Monday night.

The Three Lions ran out comfortable 3-0 winners at St James’ Park following an improved second half display with Cole Palmer, Alexander-Arnold and Harry Kane getting on the scoresheet.

The 25-year-old scored the goal of the night as he hit a cushioned volley into the far corner following a brilliant pass from substitute Jack Grealish.

Gareth Southgate made a number of changes to his team and handed several players an opportunity to impress with Palmer, Eberechi Eze, Lewis Dunk and Marc Guehi all starting.

Alexander-Arnold started the game in central midfield alongside Conor Gallagher before dropping to right back later on.

The Liverpool stars position has long been a topic of conversation, but speaking after the game he admitted he’s not fussed where he plays.

Alexander-Arnold could play a key role for England at the Euros.

“I have had a conversation with the manager and potentially that is where he sees me,” he told BBC Radio 5 Live.

“In my head I am not fussed at all where I play, I just want to play as much football as I can over the summer.”

Alexander-Arnold felt it was a positive night for England and they laid a foundation to build on.

“I think it was a positive night and it was a good one, a foundation laid and one to build on,” he added.

“After not playing for two weeks it was always bound to be a slow start, we built into it as a team and we found our feet in the second half.

“We made adjustments and penetrated through the lines, we can take a lot of positives.
