“Maguire has barely been playing, while his performance in England’s 3-3 draw with Germany in the Nations League draw back in September hardly inspired confidence.

“Picking him in your starting XI would represent a huge gamble, but the problem is that Maguire is not an isolated example.”

Carragher’s England squad in full: Jordan Pickford, Aaron Ramsdale, Nick Pope; Trent Alexander-Arnold, Benjamin White, Kyle Walker, John Stones, Eric Dier, Harry Maguire, Conor Coady, Kieran Trippier, Luke Shaw; Declan Rice, Jude Bellingham, Jordan Henderson, Kalvin Phillips, James Maddison, Mason Mount; Harry Kane, Tammy Abraham, Ivan Toney, Marcus Rashford, Raheem Sterling, Phil Foden, Bukayo Saka, Jack Grealish.
