England fans on X have blasted Kyle Walker after he struggled defensively during their shock 3-1 loss against Senegal. The two sides locked horns in an international friendly at The City Ground on Tuesday, June 10.

The Three Lions got off to the perfect start when Harry Kane tapped home in the seventh minute to break the deadlock. However, Senegal capitalized on Kyle Walker's failure to track Ismaila Sarr in the 40th minute, with the latter netting from close range to level the scores.

The visitors carved England open with another ball over the top in the 62nd minute, resulting in Habib Diarra making it 2-1 with a brilliant finish. To make matters worse, Jude Bellingham's leveler was then ruled out by VAR due to a handball by Levi Colwill. Cheikh Sabaly found the back of the net in the third minute of stoppage time following a rapid counter-attack to seal an impressive win for Senegal.

England fans were unimpressed by Walker's poor defending at the back as his lack of awareness led to Sarr scoring. The 35-year-old also looked uncharacteristically slow and rusty on the ball.

One fan posted:

"Walker definitely should be permanently dropped"

Another fan tweeted:

"Kyle Walker is finished omg ship this guy to Saudi League"

Other fans reacted below:

"Why is Kyle Walker even in this squad? He’s so past it and wasting the place of a young player," one fan commented
"Also Kyle Walker needs to retire as it’s clear he’s just sh**e in every game he plays," another added
"Kyle Walker can never play again," one fan insisted
"I don't get why Walker gets picked. We know what he offers, so fine, he's around if we need him. But shouldn't we be blooding in a new Rb?!?!?" another questioned
