Sutton: England won't repeat Euro 2016 'shambles' under Allardyce

Chris Sutton gives his backing to Sam Allardyce, who is set to be confirmed as the new England boss in the next 24 hours.

Premier League winner Sutton is critical of how England played at the Euros, but praises the new appointment: "We've got someone in, who when someone takes a throw-in, we'll have the right person marking him - that was an absolute shambles at the Euros."

He also added that, "he will get the best out of the tools he has at his disposal, and that is the most important thing bar none".
