Eddie Jones declared “hang on to your seats” as he lit the fuse for England’s pivotal World Cup group clash with Argentina on Saturday.

Jones has picked his strongest available starting XV for the Pool C showdown at Tokyo Stadium in pursuit of the victory that would propel his title challengers into the quarter-finals.

Marauding prop Mako Vunipola and tackle-busting wing Jack Nowell are poised to make their first appearances of the tournament after overcoming lengthy injury-enforced absences to secure places on the bench.

After the pool’s two weakest teams were swatted aside, Eddie Jones has picked his strongest available side, with playmakers George Ford and Owen Farrell fielded in tandem inside Manu Tuilagi.

Tuilagi was a marauding presence against Tonga, scoring two tries in a man-of-the-match performance, but was rested for the USA clash.

Jones has opted for the openside flanker combination of Tom Curry and Sam Underhill, the duo he dubbed ‘Kamikaze Kids’, in the back row with Lewis Ludlam deputising on the bench.”
