Itoje Backs Borthwick to Lead England to Greatness
Despite a disappointing Six Nations campaign, Maro Itoje remains optimistic about England's future under Steve Borthwick. England suffered four consecutive defeats, including a historic loss to Italy, but Itoje believes the team can still achieve great things. RFU chief executive Bill Sweeney has given Borthwick the opportunity to redeem himself during the summer's Nations Championship. Itoje attributes England's poor performance to a lack of cohesion, but he has faith in Borthwick and his coaching staff. "We have a strong foundation, and with the right mindset, we can overcome our recent setbacks," Itoje said. He emphasized the importance of learning from their mistakes and moving forward as a team. With a renewed sense of purpose, Itoje is confident that England will bounce back and achieve greatness under Borthwick's guidance.
