Gareth Southgate will have a tough time deciding on the final lineup for England’s match against Switzerland. With Marc Guehi suspended and some players dealing with injuries, Southgate needs to come up with the best combination of players for the game.
If Southgate sticks to the same formation, Ezri Konsa could replace Guehi. However, there are concerns about John Stones’ fitness as well. Kieran Trippier, who usually plays on the right, might be replaced by Luke Shaw, who has been out due to injury but seems ready to play.
In midfield, Kobbie Mainoo has shown promise and may partner with Declan Rice. The subs who performed well in the previous game, like Cole Palmer and Anthony Gordon, could also be considered for the match against Switzerland.
Southgate emphasized the importance of team spirit and unity, praising the players who stepped up in critical moments. He highlighted the significance of having a strong bond within the team, especially during a tournament like Euro 2024.
Despite some challenges and uncertainties, Southgate is confident that he will come up with the best possible lineup for the upcoming game. The selection process will involve weighing various factors and considering different player combinations to ensure a strong performance against Switzerland.
