Gareth Southgate may have overlooked one player at the World Cup.

Liverpool icon Jamie Carragher has warned Gareth Southgate that he may have another John Barnes situation on his hands after his treatment of Phil Foden at the World Cup.



Southgate was criticised for not utilising Foden in a game where England needed a creative spark and struggled to get the better of Gregg Berhalter's side.



"Foden has had plenty of opportunities for England, so it is not as if Southgate has ignored him," Carragher admitted to The Telegraph.



"But although it is very early in his career, there have been times watching Foden playing for his country when his situation has reminded me of John Barnes in his heyday."

"For those too young to remember, between 1987-91, Barnes was not only the most talented England player of his generation, he was streets ahead of the rest. Think of Thierry Henry during his peak years at Arsenal. That is how good Barnes was for Liverpool. Yet for England, he was a shadow of himself."

"After the game, Southgate explained why Rashford, Grealish and Jordan Henderson were brought on ahead of Foden. He said:"We thought it was the right thing to keep the team from the start then the wide players we went with Jack and Marcus ahead of Phil for the changes.
