The England team is very a much of a muchness. Apart from Kane Walker Sterling you can pretty much throw anyone in there from a group of 30.

I think they keep trying to emulate teams like Spain but they don't have the players or techique the Spanish players do and then ultimately they don't do anything because when they play against better teams or ones with a good game plan fall short.
The reason they do so well in qualifying i's they can get away with it as do have good enough players.

Their strength is pace they should be playing more like Leicester a few years ago but they won't as it unfashionable. Hitting teams on counter attack with players like sterling Rashford and vardy.
