A football coach in Norfolk is urging Gareth Southgate to change England's system- to get the best out of their attacking threats, this evening.

The appeal comes ahead of the Three Lions final group game against Slovenia- a game they must win if they're to top Group C.

"Loads of kids in England shirts, hats and with flags"

Dan Henry coaches Mulbarton Wanderers under 14s:

"England's performances so far haven't been too impressive. The 4-2-3-1 system doesn't seem to be getting the best out of our players. That being said, we've got four points after two games and we sit top of the group".

"They need to obviously beat Slovenia. But we also need to find a system where we can dominate the ball with our creative players and create chances.

"We probably have one of the best strikers in Europe and the tournament, in Harry Kane and we need to find a way to get him into the game, more".

"I was at a tournament in Costessey over the weekend and there were loads of kids in England shirts, hats and with flags.

"So regardless of our displays so far, it's clear that England being in a major tournament gets young people excited about the game and eager to play it"
