Stones confident ‘fluid’ England will click if Southgate moves to back three
System tried in training with Konsa as Guéhi replacementStones says he is fit despite knee strapping in training
John Stones is confident England are capable of a seamless switch to a back three if Gareth Southgate presses ahead with plans to change formation in Saturday’s quarter-final against Switzerland.
Marc Guéhi’s one-game ban has forced England into at least one defensive change and it is understood they have used training sessions this week to trial a return to the system that carried them to the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup.
