England left most of their fire power on the bench in order to play Sterling and Lallana, who are decent players but aren't great goalscorers and didn't do much creatively. I would say go with a front 3 of Sturridge, Kane, and Vardy, and then you have players with plenty of pace who can stretch the defense, but who are also goalscorers.
Lallana was fantastic first half, and Sterling still caused problems with his pace even though his end product needs to improve. These two were critical to the balance yesterday.
