Winging it? What to say in the pub
If you’re not fanatical about footie, here’s what to say to appear as if you’re an expert in the beautiful game. “Gareth Southgate typically uses a 4-3-3 or 3-4-3 formation, focusing on a solid defence with a dynamic attack. England's play style involves quick transitions, pressing, and exploiting the wide areas with talented wingers.”
