BBC Sport main man examines case of Lewis Hall and England search for a left-back

BBC Sport chief football writer Phil McNulty evaluated Newcastle United's Lewis Hall as a strong contender to become England's regular starting left-back under manager Thomas Tuchel. Hall started three consecutive Nations League victories after Manchester City's Nico O'Reilly returned to his club due to injury, contributing to three straight clean sheets.

McNulty highlighted Hall's chemistry with Anthony Gordon down the left flank across matches against the Czech Republic and Croatia as a major advantage. The writer for The Mag argued that Hall is clearly England's best left-back and should start the upcoming November fixtures.
