Kalvin Phillips reveals he has been 'a little bit down' over his lack of World Cup minutes

Kalvin Phillips has admitted his frustration at his lack of involvement in England's World Cup campaign in Qatar so far and said it will be difficult to dislodge Jude Bellingham in the midfield pecking order.

Phillips looks set to be on the bench again when England take on Wales in their final Group B game on Tuesday, with Bellingham likely to start for the third consecutive match at the tournament.

The 26-year-old Manchester City midfielder, an unused substitute in England's opening two group matches, heaped praise on Bellingham and described the 19-year-old star as 'absolutely unbelievable'.
