Do you go for a more defensive system?
There's probably players that you need to start that have not yet started this tournament or played more of a sub role.
You look at someone like Kobi Mainu who's got a really good engine.
Can he come on and play at least kind of the first 60 minutes?
Morgan Rodgers as well.
Can you lean on those players who haven't played key roles?
But you need that because asking players who have just played 90 minutes to do the exact same again under these conditions is...
It's probably running a big risk in terms of a sports science perspective, but also it's just really, really demanding on them.
And of course, Mexico, they've started games well.
They're yet to concede this tournament, as Jack mentioned, that you don't want to start too much on the back foot.
But I think, yeah, if you kind of put all your big hits on straight away, then you might be panicking a bit and turn into the bench kind of an hour and 70 minutes in and you need to kind of bring someone on that's going to impact the game.
I don't mean to bring age into this, Adam, so forgive me, but I don't think none of the England players were born, right, when this game occurred.
And you probably can't let it bleed into things because the game's big enough as it is.
I think the test, you were speaking before when they obviously played Argentina there,
That's also a different game to playing Mexico in Mexico that I think you let other things come into it.
You make it into even more of an occasion than it needs to be.
England need to basically make this as much as they can, a game of technical quality, a game where they keep the ball, they quiet the crowd down, turn it from an occasion into a game, play the match, play the 90 minutes.
They are a technically superior team, potentially physically, I don't know kind of about altitude, but they should have different ways of being able to beat this Mexico team, whether it be from set pieces or
whether it be an open play.
We've seen them be really creative at times this tournament.
