I remember the 1997 World Cup qualifier when England drew 0 v 0 and Ian Wright missed a chance that was easier to score
 
Easily beaten on the break - they sit deep and counter - like watching City . Nobody moves out of their zone for England , the Italian full back ran almost the length , it’s their usual plan

If we counted at that speed ( for the majority of time ) then I think people would be much more open to the way of playing, as when we do it, we score more often then not

Was just about to say the same, just like watching City. All the possession, but a lack of cutting edge, first chance the oppo gets, they put it in the back of the net. Hopefully England can replicate City's form of coming back from behind...
