Chelsea defender Gary Cahill felt England's new-look team made a statement with victory in Switzerland.
After such a miserable World Cup campaign, Cahill admits it felt good to get back to winning ways in the competitive arena.
"We know about the disappointment in the summer but we draw a line under that now and move forward," said the Chelsea defender.
"I don't think the criticism will be blown away. It is going to take time but it is a great start.
"In the period of two games we are not going to change everyone's opinion, but certainly I hope it is not all doom and gloom.
"I hope there are a few happy faces around. I think we deserve credit for this game and we are looking forward to next month."
