Who will accompany Kane and Sterling up front?

Jakarta

England manager Gareth Southgate has a dilemma in choosing the two remaining spots on his team’s front line against Denmark. That’s what you believe Jose Mourinho.

It is said Mourinho, Harry Kane and Raheem Sterling will certainly fill the two places in attack in deep England vs Denmark at Wembley, Thursday (8/7) early morning WIB, in the Euro 2020 semifinal party.

The question is, in the 4-2-3-1 formation commonly used by England, there are still two places left that can still be contested by four players.

With Kane unwaveringly spearheading and Sterling supporting from the left, the right positions and behind the strikers will be fiercely contested.

In crushing Ukraine with four goals without reply, Southgate installed Jadon Sancho on the right while Mason Mount was on standby behind Kane.

On the other hand, with Denmark playing with three defenders, it is not impossible for Southgate to tweak the formation and play with three defenders like against Germany. At that time the Three Lions offensive line was occupied by Kane as the spearhead, flanked by Bukayo Saka on the right and Raheem Sterling on the left.

Jose Mourinho himself, who throughout Euro 2020 was a talkSPORT commentator, considered that England did not need to play three defenders and remained on the 4-2-3-1 standard. But Southgate still has PR in concocting his offensive line for the game England vs Denmark.

“[Raheem] Sterling day [Harry] Kane is clear [pilihan buat starting XI], and I think there are two places where the competition is still open and the options are different,” Mourinho told talkSPORT.

“Sancho has played well, [Phil] Foden started the tournament, also with [Mason] Mount, while Grealish doesn’t look like Gareth’s favorite player [Southgate] but still playing well every minute of playing on the pitch.”

“There are a lot of options for these two places, but I believe that when we play at Wembley England will be as solid as ever, although we have to try as soon as possible to ensure the advantage.”

“And in my opinion, they don’t need to play with a back three like they did against Germany,” he said while giving an overview of England’s semi-final against Denmark.

Called Jose Mourinho, players like Luke Shaw, Kyle Walker, John Stones, and Harry Maguire will still be England’s first choice at the back. The midfield duo of Declan Rice and Kalvin Phillips are also difficult to shift for the match England vs Denmark.
