Gareth Southgate ready to ‘tear up’ England starting XI with Bellingham and Foden in new positions and back three

ENGLAND manager Gareth Southgate is set to make a dramatic change to his starting XI ahead of Saturday’s Euro 2024 quarter-final against Switzerland.

Despite reaching the last 16, the Three Lions have struggled to impress so far this summer.

They finished top of Group C after collecting five points from a possible nine and qualified for the last 16 against Slovakia thanks to late goals from Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane.

In a bid to improve things on the pitch, Southgate is set to make a significant change to his starting XI.

The England manager will “probably” switch from a back four to a back three, according to Sky Sports.
