Hart thinks England urgently needs an identity

It's true, unlike the Germans, the Brazilians or the Spaniards who have a clear idea how to play football, the English have never really been characterized for having a determined style throughout history. This seems like an outrageous thing to say because after all, it was the English the ones who brought football to the world and not having a style of their own seems illogical. But that's how things are right now for England, goalkeeper Joe Hart pointed it out this Monday. 

Ahead of England's upcoming friendly against Spain, Hart said: "We're trying to express ourselves as a team and find an identity. It's really difficult for an international manager to do that I think, because you get such little time together and we're very new. But I feel we've got a really good squad in terms of wanting to learn and work for each other and that came forward on Friday and hopefully again on Tuesday night.

"I think we've got some really important players from their club teams and it's about encouraging them to be brave enough. Whether you want it to be [out of your system] or you don't, it has to be. Football moves forward, we've got new goals. We're disappointed about it but it's another day, another campaign. We can't be licking wounds, we need to be moving forward."
