Shaw, a Long Shot, Could Provide Balance

Gareth Southgate took a chance by including Luke Shaw in his provisional squad for Euro 2024, knowing it was a long shot for the left-back to play a part in the tournament. However, the England manager clearly had hopes that Shaw would be able to contribute after choosing not to bring another left-footed defender to Germany.

According to the Times, Shaw remains in the conversation because Southgate is considering changing tactics for the quarter-final match against Switzerland. There is a possibility of switching from a back four to a back three, and Shaw could provide balance to either formation. He could play as a left-sided centre-back, left wing-back, or left full-back if he is fit to play.

With the need to find a replacement for suspended centre-back Marc Guehi for Saturday’s game, Southgate has some tough decisions to make regarding his defensive lineup. Shaw’s versatility and potential impact on the team make him an important player to consider for the upcoming match.
