England's Tactical Dilemmas at Euro 2024: Pressing, Passing, and Formation Fixes

Southgate faces challenges in team dynamics, left flank issues, and improving ball progression ahead of the Switzerland clash.

  • England's high press strategy has been ineffective, leading to defensive vulnerabilities.
  • The absence of a specialist left-back has disrupted balance, with Trippier struggling in the role.
  • Southgate's substitutions have been slow and indecisive, impacting game dynamics.
  • England's build-up play has been sluggish, often reverting to long passes from goalkeeper Pickford.
  • Consideration of a 3-4-3 formation could provide better defensive stability and offensive fluidity.
