World Cup 2018: Which Liverpool players will go furthest at the World Cup?

Kris K

3. Jordan Henderson and Trent Alexander-Arnold (England)

Netherlands v England - International Friendly
Henderson one of two Reds on the Three Lions squad

Henderson will be an integral member of the England squad in Russia despite ceding the captaincy to Tottenham's Harry Kane. England will look to him for experience and keep things ticking in midfield. On the other hand, young Trent Alexander-Arnold is taking baby steps on the international front and will be hoping to get some minutes under his belt.

The Three Lions will be expected to qualify for the knockout stages along with Belgium from Group G. Tunisia and Panama are expected to offer little resistance. Expect England to be a tough matchup for potential group H opponents, Colombia or Poland. They would then set up a quarterfinal against favourites Brazil or Germany. A semifinal appearance seems unlikely for Jordan and Trent.
