The Daily Mail reported that Manchester City winger Sterling had clashed with Liverpool defender Joe Gomez after the England team got together at their Burton on Trent training centre on Monday -- less than 24 hours after City lost 3-1 at Liverpool. The newspaper reported that "Sterling attempted to grab Gomez by the neck following his arrival in the players' canteen". Sterling has become a key player for England in the past year after being criticised for his displays at the 2018 World Cup. For England, Sterling has scored 12 goals in 55 games but has been a regular under Southgate and scored twice in the recent 6-0 win away to Bulgaria. England top Group A and will guarantee a place at the finals with a draw against Montenegro.
