"We want to dominate games and have a lot of the ball and that's something we will prepare for carefully.
"There's still time with players on holiday and then returning to their clubs, but we're looking forward to coming together again and performing with England."

BBC Sport women’s football news reporter England did not want to go through the play-offs but were given an unkind draw in the qualifying groups when they met world champions Spain.
It does mean, however, that Sarina Wiegman's side are in a strong position for the play-offs and will fancy their chances with a kind trip to Greece in October.
They beat potential round two opponents Ukraine in both matches in the qualifying group stage, which will give them confidence too.
There is a tricky tie for Northern Ireland, who come up against a talented young squad from Portugal in round one. Portugal twice beat Northern Ireland in Euro 2025 qualifying.
Their task gets trickier if they make it through to round two with potential opponents Iceland proving to be difficult to break down in their matches against England this year.
Scotland are hoping to reach just their second Women's World Cup finals having failed to qualify in 2023.
They performed well in this year's qualifying group stages, including draws with Belgium that showed they can compete with Europe's strongest teams.
They will need to produce their best in round two if they meet big-hitters Sweden, who have been semi-finalists in the past two Women's World Cup finals.
Wales have never beaten a top-20 ranked nation in a competitive fixture and are likely to need to do so to qualify - and their away form needs improvement.
But Rhian Wilkinson's side face familiar opponents in round one. They thrashed Albania 4-0 in their qualifying group so who says they can't do it again?
Meanwhile, having performed superbly in qualifying, the Republic of Ireland have a tricky play-off route with established European opposition Belgium potentially waiting in round two.
First, Carla Ward's side will have to navigate a 3,100-mile trip to Kazakhstan, against relatively unknown opposition.
