Gary Neville has called for Morgan Rogers to replace Anthony Gordon in England's starting lineup against Panama following the goalless draw with Ghana. The former Manchester United defender believes Rogers offers more creativity and game intelligence on the left flank, particularly against defensive opponents. Neville praised Gordon's quality but suggested the Newcastle winger has had two difficult games.

England's 0-0 stalemate with Ghana highlighted tactical concerns, though progress to the knockout stages remains assured. Neville explained that Ghana's coach Carlos Queiroz is renowned for defensive organization, having previously worked with Manchester United. He noted that Thomas Tuchel's squad selection prioritized quick runners over creative players like Cole Palmer and Morgan Gibbs-White.

The pundit argued England perform better against high-pressing teams rather than deep defensive blocks. While the Croatia victory showcased electric counter-attacks, Neville pointed out defensive vulnerabilities that require addressing. He suggested England need to take more risks, put in better crosses, and improve set-piece execution against Panama.

Neville's tactical assessment reveals Tuchel faces criticism for omitting creative talents, knowing the consequences if England lack invention against stronger opponents. The squad's profile reflects Tuchel's philosophy, but questions remain about adapting to different tactical challenges.
