JAMIE George has warned Argentina that their attempts to unsettle England ahead of Saturday's pivotal World Cup showdown in Toyko could backfire.

Pumas talisman and former captain Agustin Creevy lit the fuse for the Pool C clash by declaring that Eddie Jones' team play "boring" rugby and should be ready for a "war".

England comfortably topped the try-scoring charts in this year's Six Nations and have already crossed 11 times in Japan after posting emphatic wins against Tonga and the USA.

Hooker George will line-up against Creevy at Tokyo Stadium believing his opposite number is mistaken.

"I don't think we play boring rugby. I'm not overly surprised that he's tried to say that, but he's entitled to his opinion and hopefully we'll prove him wrong on Saturday," George said.

"In my opinion I don't think it's very justified. I'm sure he's just trying to rattle us a bit. He's more than welcome to try."

Creevy will become Argentina's most capped player when he makes an 88th Test appearance on Saturday.

The 34-year-old is well versed in English rugby, after spending two seasons at Worcester until leaving in 2016 to join Buenos Aires-based Super Rugby franchise the Jaguares.

While he added that he loved his time in England to the point he would eventually like to move there with his wife, also holding the nation's rugby team in great affection, he has placed pleasantries on hold as Saturday approaches.

England's attack coach Scott Wisemantel uses statistics to dispute the Argentine's outlook.

"Creevy might just have been at a boring club in England, I don't really know." Wisemantel said.

"I don't think that (England are boring) and he obviously hasn't been watching much of the Premiership as there are some excellent teams with so many different styles.

"And it's a bit like me making a judgement call on the Jaguares - they are very different."

When asked to describe England's style of play, Wisemantel said: "It's varied and can be very structured at times.

"But you have to remember in this tournament a third of our tries have come from unstructured play so I don't necessarily agree with Creevy."
