According to Jurgen Klinsmann, there is nothing complicated about the way that England play. Some may call it predictable, and it's not always the most beautiful, but as long as it's effective, it doesn't matter.
England don't need to play like Brazil, and they don't need to borrow football heritage from other countries.
According to Klinsmann, England should be 'who they are' and 'be proud of that.'
When Klinsmann took over as Germany boss in 2005, after a failed European Championship, he wanted to give Germany an identity, and their own way of playing. This included the team attitude.
Two years later, a young German team made it to the semi-finals of the World Cup and captured the imagination of their fans around the world.
According to Klinsmann it was a beautiful moment because all the players saw themselves as part of the team, and there was a surge of pride in the German identity.
He sees similarities with the England team, and their connection with the public, not just their similar ages.
"I wanted England to be decisive and assertive in your quarter-final against Sweden, and the same goes against Croatia, although they are a very different team," he said.
He thinks that Southgate might change a few things tactically, but that it won't be important in the final outcome.
He believes that the important thing is the energy that players bring, and that they have the belief in themselves to get to the final.
"Mentally, I think they are ready, whatever happens. England have not gone behind in a game that matters in this tournament but, if it happens on Wednesday, they have the resilience to deal with it."
