Well we don't have any good midfielders so it's a smart move.
Plus imagine how many broken legs if we played tiki taka against Colombia, christ.

Yeah after Sweden, we're under dogs all the way, just have to accept it, use our in form defense and hit on the break.
Our defense is actually very good, that I'll give them.
They play 5 at the back miles better than Arsenal did when we tried it.
My biggest gripe is Ali and Sterling have been sh*t going forward and stifled us using Kane properly.
Sterling is not doing well playing in the hole and Ali is a non participant.
The only thing again I'll give the midfield credit for is defensively.
Lingard and Ali should be stretching oppositions and getting in crosses or passes to Kane and they aren't, Sterling just keeps giving the ball away.

Yet when it came to the crunch in this years WC against sides who were supposed to be on their level they caved in and showed no winning mentality.
Is it time England finally gave up on these players?
