Game philosophyEngland tries to control the game (with an average of 52% ballpossession) by performing many passes (589). The team relies onmobility of middle line and attacking players, who exchangepositions and craft combinations in order to create free zones inopponent’s defense and move towards opponent’s goal. Attacksare mostly developed down the flanks. Wingers are technicallyskilled, often apply dribbling for crafting extra-attacks, full-backsactively support them. At the finishing stage players often use aircrosses and ground crosses. England actively pressuresopponents in their half. In positional defense the team tries toblock the central zone, thus forcing opponents to the flanks.

Opponent’s chancesThe players actively follow the ball, the team createscompactness in the possession zone and narrows the gamespace. Opponents should use the full width of the field andquickly change the flank of attack. This will provide the space atthe far flank, it’s advisable to include the full-backs in order tocreate the width of attacks. English full-backs may miss passesbehind them and often have no support. It’s advisable to use onetouch in order to perform a vertical pass to a partner on run intheir zone. Central midfielders do not interact in an organizedway when creating pressing on the flanks, allowing to pass theball to the unmarked partners in half-spaces, from where extra-attacking passes or middle-distance shots can be performed.

Threats for opponentsThanks to a good mutual understanding, the team crafts fastflank combinations and successfully enters the box. Alli, Barkleyand Delph successfully craft combinations with short and middlepasses, and after those the flank defenders move to the side boxedge. Through passes into half-space zones are frequent whereRashford and Sterling are supposed to cut inside. Kaneeffectively offers himself for receiving the ball in the pathsbetween defenders either can drop deeper in midfield, he’ssuccessful at the finishing stage of attacks as well as being atarget for crosses and long balls. Be aware of his long-rangeshot. In counter-attacks the team rely much on pace anddribbling of both wingers.

General patternsThe team controls the ball in the back line, involving centraldefenders and a holding midfielder. Full-backs take highpositions along the flanks while the rest of the players fill thecentral zone and half-space zones. Attackers frequently swaptheir positions. By rushing in different directions, players try toruin opponent’s defensive structure and enter into the free zones.The attack is further quickly turned to the flank zone. Full-backsmay also participate in the initial stage of attack. Whenopponents actively intensify the central zone, they move closerto own goal and receive the ball near the central line. Then theydevelop attacks using vertical passes to wingers on run into half-space zone.

Combinations down the flanksIn positional attacks England mostly uses flanks. 1-2 centerfieldplayers join flank players, the far winger may move to the strongflank. This allows the team to intensify the ball zone and enterpositions for performing passes into the box by crafting well-organized combinations. Wingers might take a more centralposition and provide passing options between the lines. Afterreceiving the ball, the aim is to exploit attacking players’ runsbehind opponent’s defense. It should be stressed that wingersmight also drop deeper and support teammates in build-up.

Kane as a focal point up front The main striker – Kane is tall, aerially adept and is also mobile.Thus, the team have different dimensions of attack due to hisversatility. Long balls are to be expected from goal kicks/backpasses with pressure on the goalkeeper, for fast vertical build upand as a surprise attacking element – the main recipient will beKane who has great aerial ability (67% winning rate). Moreover,Kane has a technical ability and awareness to link up play in thefinal third and help his team reach the final stage of attacks. Therotation and movement of the wingers allows him to drop andhave options ahead or he can turn and look to dribble and/orshoot from any range. He also drags defenders with hismovement thus creating space for supporting runners.

Team stats analysisCounter-attacks

Recovery in opposition half The team overloads small zones close to the flanks for winningthe ball back from the opposition and not allowing the ball toescape that zone of pressure. When they recover the ball, they tryto move the ball promptly to another side, using the winger forfirst pass with the aim to open up space for quick transition. Thewingers drift inside to receive from the recoverer, and can playthrough pass in behind for the attackers running behind thedefenders’ backs or pass the ball back to the full-back who hasthe proper visual to evaluate teammates’ movement and give theball to them. In such case the central midfielders tend to moveoutwards in response to the inwards movement of the winger, inorder to provide width.

Recovery in own halfThe main option of development of counter-attacks is use oflong passes after recovery in own half, trying to deliver a balldirectly towards center-forward or winger (Rashford especiallydue to his height and pace). They open behind defenders’ backand make movements into free space to receive a ball freely.Such long passes can be done both right after ball recovery andafter quick draw in short pass, so at once first or second passfollows forward. Such passes are made often into challenges.

Actions in the final thirdPlayers try to aggravate a game due to penetrative passesbetween defenders under breakthroughs of attacking group.Kane often looks for an opportunity to make diagonalbreakthrough behind defenders, trying to receive a ball on moveto goal. After attacks down the flanks they are inclined to makecrosses into the penalty area with its saturation or strongpenetrative passes under a shot on goal. In the final third of thefield players are able to cover the whole width and use transitionof a ball from one flank to another, looking for openings ofattacking group.

High pressingAlthough England are not playing all the time in high pressing,they are looking to be aggressive out of possession and theyrecover the ball in opponent’s half very often. They step higherespecially early in the game or when they try equalize. At thesame time, back line is well at protecting space behind them.They are not looking to step up quickly and as a result, if rivalscan pass through that first line of pressing, space can be found inbetween their lines and counter-attack can be developed wellfrom that position.

Breaks between the lines in transitionFull-backs active performance and their regular verticalmovements make them vulnerable to passes behind. Whendelivering the ball to the flank and when a defender promptlymoves forward, it’s advisable to craft combinations between thetwo players with one-touch passes. Central defenders often stayin a narrow position and do not support a partner. When movingto own goal, English players periodically have a break betweenthe lines. Dier moves to the box late, this allows opponent’splayers receiving the ball and shooting, if they craft the secondchance attack. It’s advisable to perform soft ground passes to thearea of the 11-meter mark.

Vulnerable under pressure in the initial stage of build-upEngland look to value the possession and build-up patiently fromthe back. However, against aggressive and fast opponents theysuffer a lot under pressure during the first stage of build-up. As aresult, it might be fruitful to press them and recover the ball inhigh zones of the pitch. The most vulnerable players are onflanks – Chilwell (2,3 lost balls in own half), Sterling (3 balls),Alexander-Arnold (2 balls). It is possible to hurt them with fasttransitions and take advantage of the space conceded bydefenders while they try to take a higher position.

Team stats analysisSet pieces in attack

Corners in attackChiwell, Barkley, Sterling and Henderson are among cross takersin recent games. 6 players position in opponent’s box. Sterlingand Rashford are positioned in a way to complete crosses to thenear corner of the goalkeeper’s box (the latter often rushestowards the taker while the former stays in the 6-yard box). 4other players start their runs from the penalty spot area: Kanerushes to the far corner of the goalkeeper’s box, aiming atcompleting a nod-in from a partner or redirecting the shot, Dierruns towards near post, Stones rushes into the center from deeppositions, locally intensifying the zone. The players are capableto perform combinations with a screen. The center of the box isthe main direction of crosses. Chilwell or Barkley are picking-upthe rebounds.

Free-kicks in attackFree-kicks are performed by the same group of players. Mostoften, the cross is sent on the outgoing trajectory to the farcorner of the goalkeeper’s box. In this case the intensification iscreated by Kane or Alli moving from the depths of the box,Stones rushes towards the far post. When the set-piece issituated on the flank, the team has 6 players inside the box whileanother one may be on the flank as an option for short play andthen to perform a cross. Players can perform a cross to the centerof the box intended for Dier or one of the central defenders, butnot for shooting, for performing a nod-in, as a rule, also to the farcorner of the goalkeeper’s box. Cooperating, Sterling or Rashfordcan provide support to Kane by blocking an opponent when hemoves to receive a cross.

Team stats analysisSet pieces in defense

Corners in defenseEngland organizes the mixed defense. The number of players inactive defense inside the box depends on the rival’s behavior.Basically, Kane covers the near-post area and another one playersecures the far post. Other 5-6 players perform individualcovering. Sterling or another pacey player prepares for atransition phase. However, the number of players in activedefense can go up, if opponents are truly dangerous in the corner-kick attacks. If an opposite-team decides to play a short-passcombination, 2 of the English players try to block a pass into thebox. When defending players move closer to own goal, the upperzone of the goalkeeper’s remains uncovered, and the picking-upplayer does not timely react to the nod-in to this zone.

Free-kicks in defenseZonal marking is used. When opponents choose to play ball intothe box, the English players gather inside the penalty area or onits line. They wait for ball delivery in such setting. When the ballis played, they run – side by side with attacking opponents –towards place where ball is pointed. Additionally one or twoplayers may stay in a wall, while one more player (Trippier,Barkley or Chilwell) could stay just in front of the defending lineand wait for second balls collection. When opponent has achance to shoot directly, 4-5 players will stay in a wall, whileothers will be set in penalty area (or on its line) and mark rivals.However, the England players may have problems withdistributing marking duties on the move.
