I dont know about that. More and more teams are perfecting the counter attack strategy that counters the tikka-takka style at club level, so I wouldnt at all be surprised to see some of that stuff used at the WC.
I fully expect England to park the bus and rely on the Ox, Sturridge and Sterling with a pacey counter attack, especially against Uruguay.
