The Three Lions take on Slovakia in the knockout round.
England resume their Euros campaign this weekend with their last sixteen tie against Slovakia. 

So far, the Three Lions have faced huge criticism for their performances in Germany after some lacklustre displays in their three group games. 

Gareth Southgate's team selection has come under fire, but ahead of the meeting with Slovakia, ITV host Laura Woods has outlined who she'd like to see in England's starting XI. 

Talking to BetMGM, Woods thinks the Three Lions boss should unleash some of the squad's young players to kick-start the team's bid for glory in the tournament. 

She said: "I don’t think Gareth [Southgate] has necessarily been wrong in the players he’s picked to start the group games but I think players have come off the bench and claimed their spots.

"Kobbie Mainoo instantly made an impact against Slovenia. He was very positive and linked up play nicely. We looked 100 times better and much more of a threat with him in midfield. 

"I love Cole Palmer, he’s the kind of player other teams will be scared of. I’d love to see Palmer start on the right and Bukayo Saka on the left against Slovakia. Mainoo deserves to start in midfield alongside Declan Rice and I think Trent Alexander-Arnold should come back into the side at right-back with Kyle Walker switching to left-back.

"That looks like a much more balanced side to me."
