An England legend called for Gareth Southgate to make an extremely early substitution against Serbia.
England legend Stuart Pearce called for Gareth Southgate to make a substitution just 29 minutes into the Euro 2024 opening win over Serbia. England dominated in the first half without creating too many chances, but had to stand up to Serbia's pressure in the second half to claim a vital victory.Metro, Pearce said: "We talked about early substitutions leading into the game, I tell you what I’d do, I’d bring Eberechi Eze on now to attack instead of Foden.
"There’s no attack down the left-hand side whatsoever – Kieran Trippier is obviously being a right-footed left-back and isn’t offering anything in the advanced areas."I’d like to see us having a joint attack on either side and the way that Serbia have set up is like they’re lying down and saying 'please don’t hurt us too much'.
