Jordan Pickford has emphasized the importance of a cohesive defensive unit in England’s success at Euro 2024. Despite the focus on the team’s attacking strength this summer, there are concerns about their defensive line. With Harry Maguire left out of the squad due to injury and Luke Shaw not having played competitively in months, there are changes in store for the backline.
Kieran Trippier will move to left-back with Marc Guehi stepping in for Maguire at centre-back. Pickford stressed the importance of working together as a unit rather than focusing solely on individual defensive players. He highlighted the importance of keeping clean sheets in order to succeed in the tournament.
As England prepares to face Serbia, Pickford emphasized the need for a strong defensive record in order to progress far in the competition. The team’s attacking talent is well-known, but a solid defense will be key to their success. The midfield duo of Trent Alexander-Arnold and Declan Rice is expected to support Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham in attack, with other players like Bukayo Saka, Phil Foden, and Cole Palmer vying for forward positions.
