I watched their Norway match and had criticized their tactics. Basically their midfield play is weak. He plays 2 defensive midfield, 1 attacking midfield, and 2 wingers. Their midfield control is non existence!! I don't know whatever they did in the practice but it's just not working. Every aerial ball couldn't land on their player; it got intercepted by Argentina. THAT WAS HIS ONLY PLAN, there is no plan B.
So he switch all to defense. It was an unorganized piece of crap I have seen, just like Arsenal. No one single person go up front putting pressure on their midfield. They are getting unlimited chances!! Then more disasters struck, Reece James injured, Spence injured himself because of how off position from Messi, O'relly tried to cover his role but it was sluggish. Messi made that pass for Lautaro's winner. After the injury, their backline was in shambles.
English fans kept saying they were going to win the world cup. I don't think this England can even match 2024 England against Spain. Spain will absolutely play them like a fiddle.
