00:00England were just under 90 seconds from being eliminated at Euro 2024 following another
00:06concerning performance in the last 16 against Slovakia.
00:10The question now is whether the two goals from Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane were simply
00:14delaying the inevitable as England face an informal Swiss side on Saturday.
00:19Southgate relied mainly on the players and system that he has persisted with so far in
00:24this tournament, but many are still calling for a different approach.
00:29With Phil Foden playing on the left, many have argued for a natural left winger in Anthony
00:33Gordon to replace him with Foden then coming inside.
00:38This would give England more width and a more direct attack down that side of the pitch.
00:42Mark Gee is suspended against the Swiss, meaning that Esri Konta could come in to replace him
00:47in the last aid encounter.
00:50And finally, could a new system be employed against the Swiss?
00:53As 4-3-3 has looked disjointed so far, could a new formation suit the side better?
