It’s funny how pundits still regard international football as the pinnacle whereas in reality it is so far below club football.

Keep mentioning “at this level”. Hasnt been the level since mid 90s.
 
Why is it not Palmer instead of Trippier kills me
Because Palmer at wingback would be a suicidal tactic, especially against Aebischer and Ndoye (who will trade sides throughout the match).

He is an out-and-out attacker, with little in the way of defensive skills (or work rate beyond the halfway line), as evidenced by his side being constantly exploited last season whilst playing with Chelsea.

He is supremely talented going forward, but a huge weakness going backward.

I would have had Palmer in over Bellingham, personally, as I think he and Phil would wreak havoc with so many defenders behind them allowing them to completely focus on attack, but we all knew Southgate was never going to drop Bellingham.
