Liverpool defender Joe Gomez has expressed his frustration at a lack of playing time early in the season, but he also understands why he's spending so much time on the bench and will continue to work hard.
Per Goal's Sam France, the youngster was asked about Gareth Southgate's decision not to call him up during the most recent international break.
Gomez said he understands England internationals need to be playing regularly:
"I cannot blame him. He speaks to me and is a great manager, but I have to understand that I have to play for my club like other players are.
