How England's Lionesses should line up vs Colombia in 2023 Women's World Cup: Jordan Nobbs deserves her chance with Lauren James suspended

A pretty simple one. With three clean sheets in four games, and having only conceded from the penalty spot, Earps has been one of the best performing goalkeepers at this tournament.

For various reasons, Wiegman should revert back to the 4-3-3 set-up for this game and therefore Bronze should return to an orthodox right-back role.

Colombia are particularly strong out wide and the way Nigeria carved England open with ease down the flanks in the 3-5-2 system, exploiting the space left behind the wing-backs, was cause for concern. A back four should be less exposed, especially with two hard-working wingers in front of the full-backs.

One of few players who came out of the Nigeria game with any credit, Bright did well to help keep the Super Falcons' lively attack at bay and she'll face another tough task on Saturday in trying to stifle a versatile and confident Colombian front line.

One of England's best players at this tournament, Greenwood has played three different roles already and has been impressive in all of them.

She should partner Bright in a back four for the quarter-finals, able to show her quality in possession while her ability to read play and position herself well will help the Lionesses quieten the Colombia attack.

Arguably, Carter's biggest strength as a player is her one-v-one defending. It makes sense, then, to move her to left-back for this game - where she could be matched up against Real Madrid's teenage phenom Linda Caicedo.

She may not offer a great deal going forward in the role, with it unnatural to her, but Carter's strong positioning and timing in the tackle would be ideal against Colombia's wingers. That she won't be too adventurous on the attack will probably help to stop England from being exposed on the counter as much, too.

Another reason why it makes sense to revert back to 4-3-3 is because the 3-5-2 system simply did not work very well with Keira Walsh back in the team.

As perhaps England's best player, it's no surprise that her team-mates were so keen to give her to ball as often as possible against Nigeria. However, that she was in a holding midfield role in front of a back three, and being pressed brilliantly by the Super Falcons, meant she couldn't get into any positions to really influence play positively.

A change in system can get the best out of Walsh again.

Switching systems would also benefit Stanway. The Bayern Munich star has to play a deeper role in the 3-5-2 set-up and it limits her attacking game, which is her strength.

Moving back to a midfield three and giving her a bit more licence to roam would be wise.

So, how do England replace the suspended James? There are not a ton of options that Wiegman has in midfield.

Ella Toone hasn't shown great form at this tournament, while Manchester United team-mate Katie Zelem is a holding midfielder. That leaves Laura Coombs and Jordan Nobbs, unless the coach wants to trial a new No.10.

Nobbs can play any role in midfield - whether she's deployed as another No.8 with Stanway or as a No.10 - and deserves to come into the team. She's got tons of experience at the highest level, so being brought into the XI for a World Cup quarter-final will not phase her, and she is arguably one of England's most talented players.

She's not seen a minute of action yet, though. Could that change this weekend?

After netting the winning penalty in Monday's nervy shootout, Kelly will be full of confidence and England will hope she can capitalise on that with a good showing in Sydney.

The Manchester City star is yet to really show the world what she can do in this tournament but now is as good a moment as any.

After a brilliant display against China, Alessia Russo struggled again when England took on Nigeria and it's time to give Daly a shot in the No.9 role at this tournament instead.

The most in-form goal-scoring forward in the Lionesses' squad, Daly's high energy pressing, clinical finishing and aerial ability should make her difficult for Colombia's solid defence to deal with.

With electric pace and a wicked delivery, Hemp - and Kelly - can provide quality service for Daly in the box. James' suspension means Wiegman doesn't have a lot of choice out wide now but the Man City duo have a great relationship and she should try to maximise that.
