JAKARTA - England and Greece are competing for the top position of the Group 2 League B standings in the match at Wembley Stadium, Friday, October 11, 2024 in the morning WIB. England is a bit in trouble because players in all lines, except for goalkeepers, have suffered injuries.
The squad's reshuffle will be carried out by interim manager Lee Carsley. Even captain Harry Kane is likely to sit on the bench after suffering an injury while strengthening Bayern Munich against Eintracht Frankfurt which ended 3-3 in the German Bundesliga.
Even though it was declared that there were no injuries to Kane, Carsley still considered the top scorer in the history of the England national team to make it a starter. Carsley preparedulan Watkins or Dominic Solanke who was first summoned after seven years of absence from The Three Lions.
Carsley seems to make England to play offensively in the match against Greece. Appearing at home will be maximized by the manager while gaining three points as well as winning the top spot.
Watkins, if the Aston Villa forward is the first choice, supported by players who have attacking characters, Bukayo Saka, Cole Palmer and Jack Grealish who were expelled by the previous manager, Gareth Southgate, from the Euro 2024 squad.
Not only that, but the pivotal midfielder is also at Jude Bellingham who is actively covering up attacks like he did at Real Madrid. He worked hand in hand with Declan Rice who will be England's first defense before the ball enters the back line. In that sector, Carsley lost Manchester United midfielder Kobbie Mainoo who was still grappling with his injury.
In the back line, Carsley was bothered by the absence of Villa defender Ezri Konsa who was injured against MU. Initially Konsa wanted to be duet with John Stones because Harry Maguire was again crossed out because he was also injured.
There was no choice for Carsley to except to field Marc Guehi with the Stones. Meanwhile, Trent Alexander-Arnold returned to his right-back position.
Meanwhile, Greece will work extra hard to stop the waves of British attacks. Newcastle United goalkeeper Odyssey Vlachodimos became the foundation of Greece to confront opposing forwards.
Vlachodimos peduk was fortified by Liverpool defender Kostas Tsimikas who worked hand in hand with Dinos Mavropanos who played at West Ham United.
In that match, Greek coach Ivan Jovanovic lost Fotis Ioannidic striker who was absent due to injury. With the absence of the Panathinaikos striker, the Vangelis Pavlidis striker who became the focus of The Pirate Ship.
