Former Chelsea star Ashley Cole has urged England head coach Gareth Southgate to rest Bukayo Saka and play Phil Foden on the right wing for the Three Lions.
Cole spoke ahead of England’s Euro 2024 last group-stage game tie against Slovenia on Tuesday.
England have won one and drawn one of their two games at Euro 2024 so far.
Asked what he would change about the England starting XI for their remaining games, Cole said (via beIN SPORTS): “I would like to see Anthony Gordon play from the left. I would like to see Foden playing on the right because I feel he’s been unfairly dug out. You can still see it as a rest for Saka. I would like Foden to show the world how good he is because we know.”
He added: “In terms of midfield or other changes, I’d like to see Kobbie or Cole Palmer play in midfield, be more front-footed, and dominate the ball a bit more. They would be my changes.”
