Itoje Backs Borthwick to Lead England to Greatness
Despite a disappointing Six Nations campaign, England captain Maro Itoje has voiced his unwavering support for head coach Steve Borthwick, believing the team can achieve remarkable success under his guidance. England's poor run in the Six Nations, which included a historic loss to Italy, has raised questions about Borthwick's future. However, RFU chief executive Bill Sweeney has hinted that Borthwick will be given the opportunity to redeem himself during the summer's Nations Championship. Itoje acknowledges that England fell short of expectations, but he remains optimistic about the team's potential, citing the coaching staff's expertise. "We have faith in our approach," Itoje stated, emphasizing the need for the team to learn from their mistakes and move forward. With Borthwick at the helm, Itoje is convinced that England can overcome their current challenges and go on to accomplish great things.
