At Euro 2024, several England supporters had urged former manager Gareth Southgate to select a more aggressive lineup, possibly even benching striker Harry Kane.
Back then, England lamented their incapacity to successfully assemble players like as Frank Lampard, Paul Scholes, and Steven Gerrard in one squad.
Supporters who desired radical changes in this new post-Southgate age were granted their wish on Thursday at Wembley when Greece played, as Kane was ruled out due to a minor knock.
It is believed to be a first for the Three Lions when Carsley did not select a recognized striker from the outset.
There are two possible outcomes, right? stated Paul Robinson, a former England goalkeeper, on BBC Radio 5 Live earlier.
“We’re either praising him as a genius or shouting for Dominic Solanke or Ollie Watkins to enter the game. He’s carrying it out his way.”
After that loss, Carsley isn’t being referred to be a genius.
Greece, ranked 48th, were the lowest-ranked team to defeat England in a close away match since the creation of the FIFA global rankings in 1992.
Watkins did enter the game after 60 minutes, while Solanke entered the game 12 minutes later. In the end, England played 4-4-2.
