Gareth Southgate has plenty of food for thought after England's 'solid rather than spectacular' start at Euro 2024, writes Phil McNulty.
England’s Euro 2024 campaign started in the winning manner that manager Gareth Southgate demanded, but it was not an easy ride against Serbia in Gelsenkirchen.Southgate will be delighted with the three points but there was still plenty of food for thought for the England boss before Thursday’s second Group C game against Denmark in Frankfurt.
Serbia had to resort to illegal means on several occasions to stop Bellingham in his tracks, but he is so powerful physically, also possessing the added edge in his game to relish the physical confrontations. Foden's left-flank partnership with Kieran Trippier did not look a natural fit and it is something Southgate must consider before England face Denmark on Thursday.
Foden was not the only one to have a quiet night, with captain Harry Kane touching the ball just twice during the first half.England looked on course for the sort of routine night that would have been the perfect opening to Euro 2024, where their experience of major tournaments and the talent at Southgate's disposal makes them among the favourites.
England were also able to enjoy the added bonus of establishing early supremacy in Group C after the first game between Denmark and Slovenia ended all square.Bukayo Saka was at the centre of a debate about whether he would be edged out of England's starting line-up for this tournament by the emergence of Chelsea's Cole Palmer, a stand-out performer in his first season at Stamford Bridge following a £40m move from Manchester City.
