Former Manchester United midfielder and England legend Paul Scholes has expressed his belief in the potential of young talent Kobbie Mainoo to enhance England‘s midfield performance at the ongoing Euro 2024 tournament.

Amidst reports indicating that England Manager Gareth Southgate is considering the inclusion of Conor Gallagher over Trent Alexander-Arnold for the upcoming match against Slovenia, Scholes has highlighted his frustration at Mainoo’s absence from the English squad during the tournament.

Scholes emphasized the importance of astute decision-making in midfield, suggesting that Mainoo possesses the tactical acumen and skill set required to positively impact England’s playing style at Euro 2024.

While England has secured qualification to the knockout stages, their midfield dynamics have come under scrutiny, prompting Scholes to advocate for Mainoo’s selection based on his football intelligence and vision on the pitch.

Comparing Mainoo’s potential influence to midfield stalwarts like Toni Kroos and Rodri, Scholes believes that the introduction of the Manchester United young talent could significantly elevate England’s midfield cohesiveness and strategic play.

With England aiming to secure the top spot in Group C to set up a crucial knockout tie, the spotlight remains on Southgate’s decisions as the team progresses in Euro 2024.
