It might only have been Tunisia, but that opening win felt important for England's confidence, they seemed to go into their shells as that game went on. They are playing what should be inferior opposition, but at the same time, it's a Panama team that were holding Belgium at bay until a wonder goal broke the dam.
Feel this will be even trickier than Tunisia because Panama will camp deep and not given England any space to play. And given how the supporting cast behind Kane played against Tunisia, it does have me slightly worried about where the first goal is coming from. Might have to be a set piece again.
It sounds drastic, but I'd drop Sterling and start Rashford upfront alongside Kane, drop Walker for Cahill and switch out Young for Rose. I suspect we'll see the same again from Southgate though. What changes would you make, if any?
