The Chelsea centre back has emphasized the important of playing tournament football in a back to the wall situation and agreed that England might need to play defensively to get results in Poland and Ukraine against sides such

http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gary-Cahill-c14439 has come out and emphasized the importance of playing real tournament football when England take on their European rivals at the European Championships in Poland and Ukraine over the summer as Chelsea did in the UEFA
Champions League in the recently concluded season. Cahill was at the centre of Chelsea’s progression to the final of the Champions League where they defeated Bayern Munich on penalties.
The former Bolton man has seen an unprecedented rise in his career as after switching clubs from Bolton to Chelsea in the January transfer window, he has become a central figure at Stamford Bridge and as a result he has won the
F.A Cup as well as the UEFA Champions League. The young centre back is now a part of Roy Hodgson’s England national team side which are seen as underdogs for the European Championships but England do not have a pretty record at the EUROs as they failed to
qualify for the last version of the tournament held in 2008.
Nonetheless, Cahill focused on the type of football teams have to play in cup competitions and admitted that England might need to win ugly in some cases in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ukraine-c3032. He said, "In this sort of tournament, knock-out football,
sometimes you win playing good football and sometimes you win playing backs-to-the-wall football.”
He added, "It truly is all about the results. It is nice to win games playing well but what I have learned in the last six months, it is also about getting the right results. If we did that with England this summer it would be
fantastic. There is some great quality in this squad. There are some great players here and we should be going into the games confident."
Cahill’s chances of starting for England are quite high as he is seen as a future regular for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rio-Ferdinand-c31173 for the European Championships is because of his young age and
understanding with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 colours.
