On June 14, England international Ivan Toney addressed the外界’s skepticism over manager Gareth Southgate’s squad selection, stating that his inclusion of numerous attacking players is a strategy to overwhelm opponents with offensive power.
Southgate’s England squad has drawn considerable criticism, especially for excluding Marcus Rashford and Jack Grealish while selecting three number 9 strikers, leading to doubts about a potential imbalance in the team’s setup.
Toney commented, “Southgate’s reasoning behind this is to make England more aggressive, relying on our attacking strength to dominate. Our three number 9s are all capable and in good form. When opportunities arise on the pitch, we must seize them to support England fully.”
In this edition of the Euros, England finds itself in Group C alongside Denmark, Slovenia, and Serbia. The Three Lions’ aim in the tournament is to lift the trophy.
