Analysis of England's National Team: Got the Number 9 Best, but Poor Playmaker

British national team through the Euro 2020 qualifying round smoothly. However, there is one point to be respected. It is said that the English national team does not have a world class playmaker.

England has played three matches in the Group A qualifiers for Euro 2020. England have earned perfect points. The Czech Republic, Montenegro and Bulgaria were defeated by extraordinary scores.

England is able to score 14 goals in three matches. Meanwhile, goalkeeper Jordan Pickford conceded just one win for Marco Vesovic in the match against Motenegro.

Behind the triumph of Britain, there is an interesting note from Sky Sports journalist Kaveh Solhekol. He thinks England is a bad playmaker, is that true? See below, Bolaneters.

If you look at the statistical registers written by the English, as if there were no problems in the attack line. With a record of 14 goals in three matches, England has become the leading club in Euro 2020 qualifiers.

Kaveh Solhekol, however, has a different perspective. He felt that the combination of Declan Rice, Ross Barkley and Jordan Henderson, who played in the match against Bulgaria, was not creative enough. Bad English playmaker.

"[England national team manager Gareth] Southgate has many high-quality midfield choices, but critics have shown that England do not have the quality of Luka Modric or Frenkie de Jong," Kaveh Solhekol said on Sky Sports.

So far, Kaveh Solhekol believes that the problem can still be solved by Southgate. While Harry Kane and Raheem Sterling continue to appear consistent, England have no problems in scoring goals.

"England can get results without a playmaker. Except when they face the best team in the world," he said.

England still has James Maddison and Dele Alli who can become playmakers, only Maddison does not have the opportunity to play. While Dele Alli is now in an injury condition.

The role of Harry Kane at the forefront of English is very important. Of the 14 goals scored by England in the Eeuro 2020 qualifying round, the Tottenham player scored five goals.

"Gareth Southgate will not trade Harry Kane for 9 more in the world, Kane has now scored more goals for England than Sir Geoff Hurst, and he needs five more goals to equal 30 Alan Shearer goals." said Solhekol.

Aside from Harry Kane, Britain is also very dependent on Raheem Sterling. Like Kane, Sterling also scored five goals. Manchester City club players have always been a mainstay of Gareth Southgate.
