The England team performed poorly and did not meet fans' expectations. While the stars of "Three Lions" are under great pressure and losing their temper.
The England team is speeding up preparations for the final match of Euro 2024 Group C against Slovenia. The "Three Lions" must win to stay at the top of the table and avoid falling into a difficult bracket. However, their preparation process is facing many obstacles and has not achieved the desired effect.
Recently, the England team encountered turbulence when two stars Kieran Trippier and Kyle Walker had a conflict. During the most recent training session, two defenders of the "Three Lions" had a fierce argument at the Blankenhain training ground. The two stood a few meters apart, clearly signaling their disagreement on a certain issue.

Fortunately, the argument was contained when Phil Foden stood up to stop the two seniors. According to the Daily Express, the cause of the incident stemmed from Walker criticizing Trippier's speed and attacking ability, leading to Trippier's anger.
Since the beginning of the tournament, coach Southgate has used both of these players on both wings of the England team, although they both play as right-backs. Due to Luke Shaw's injury, Trippier had to reluctantly take on the left-back role. This limited his ability to support attacks, making England's left wing almost ineffective from the beginning of the tournament.
According to the Daily Mail, in the training session on June 22, all English players fully participated, except for Luke Shaw, who has had to practice separately from the beginning of the tournament until now. This was the first training session after the 1-1 draw with Denmark, but the spirit of the English players was still not comfortable. Previously, on June 21, coach Southgate gave the entire team a break, giving the players 24 hours to relax with family and relatives.
