Gary Cahill prepared for defensive approach

Gary Cahill has claimed that England must be prepared to play in a defensive manner in order to succeed at Euro 2012.

The Chelsea defender believes that it is important to focus on results at a tournament and not on the style of football that is played.

Cahill said: "Winning is what's on top of everyone's agenda here. It is whenever you go into a competition like this.

"You look to achieve the best you can — and that means getting to the final. Whether that means going there and playing great football or playing backs-to-the-wall football, I don't mind because it is all about winning."

The 26-year-old has already enjoyed success with Chelsea this season, lifting both the FA Cup and the Champions League trophy during his first few months at Stamford Bridge.
