3:08
help us. It's a win-win. It's a win-win
3:10
Luke Moore. It is a win-win. Talking of
3:12
the opposite of that kind of thing, a
3:15
lose-lose is Harry Maguire's injury. It's a
3:17
big loss to Manchester United. It's a big loss to
3:19
England. That's the big news of the week, right? That's
3:21
the big news of the week. It looks like he
3:23
might not even make the FA Cup Final, which would
3:25
be a great shame for old Harry. If
3:28
he's fit in time for England's first
3:30
warm-up game against Bosnia-Herzegovina on the 3rd
3:32
of June, he wouldn't have played any
3:35
competitive football in over a
3:37
month. Does this concern you?
3:41
Yeah, I think so. I think he's currently
3:43
listed as being back on
3:45
the 3rd of June. That's like the next
3:47
available game he's likely to play. Yeah,
3:51
it's a problem because despite the shortcomings that
3:53
people perceive him to have, and you know,
3:55
that I've shared in the past as well,
3:59
he's important to England. He's reliable for England. He hasn't
4:01
missed an England game for a very very long time
4:03
that I can think of certainly not through injury and
4:06
So it's a concern chiefly because it's
4:09
not immediately obvious Who
4:11
would come in to replace him now? I
4:13
know that for example Mark
4:16
gay is played center back When
4:19
stones was unavailable, but he's always played alongside Maguire
4:21
Yeah, and I think it's fair to say it's
4:23
a completely different dynamic If you swap him out
4:26
swap him in a given that gays also been
4:28
injured himself as well It does
4:30
become a little bit of a Bit
4:32
of a problem. What do you think? Well, yeah, I think
4:34
you're right I think gay I mean gays came on as
4:36
a sub against Manchester United when palace were already for nil
4:38
up or something in The favor you're
4:40
on the first up as a sub the week before as
4:43
well. I think against Fulham. Maybe not no He's
4:45
played a very little football is the point For
4:48
a while now in the primarily due to that horrible injury
4:52
Palace, you know, it was only a couple of
4:54
games left of the season We
4:56
even play in those games is the question and if
4:58
he did would it be up to speed so Suddenly
5:03
it's looking like pretty thin
5:05
pickings this Lens
5:07
much more weight to the opinion that we were
5:09
given last week that Eric Dyer should be in
5:11
the squad And he's said a
5:14
number of times that Dyer's been finds best defensive player
5:16
since he's joined there He does say that that does
5:18
show you how chaotic they've been at the back. Yeah,
5:20
all Eric But he's also got an injury. I think
5:22
as well at the moment. Yeah, well, he's not a
5:25
big one though It's not a big one But but
5:27
it but presuming Dyer is is is fit and he's
5:29
fine and gets over this injury pretty quickly Dyer
5:32
does know the team he knows the the squad he's
5:34
played under Southgate a number of times So I think
5:36
he would have who'd be the safe option, but he's
5:38
not been in recent squads But it's great news for
5:40
him. It is great. Yeah being too unkind It's
5:43
unthinkable that if Harry Maguire doesn't make the
5:45
England squad for the euros Dyer isn't picked
5:47
exactly. So the natural Successor
5:50
to Maguire says he saved under Southgate
5:52
natural or the preferred one was gay
5:54
But he's not been playing as we've
5:56
just said you suddenly think we're
5:58
blimey now in the I would have said
6:00
well Joe Gohme is even though obviously after that little
6:03
tetta tetta he had with Raheem Sterling Seemed to
6:05
be kind of locked out in
6:07
England squad for a bit He's been back in there
6:09
since but he's playing as a fullback largely for Liverpool
6:11
I think he's still a quality center off But Southgate
6:13
has played him at full back as well when he
6:15
had the chance to play at center half Lewis
6:18
Dunk is another one who has played
6:20
under Southgate and I think He's
6:23
a squad player at best. I don't think Lewis
6:25
Dunk's the answer No, and and the other one
6:27
is is is every cons app who has played
6:29
a bit. Yeah Late,
6:32
so I think Southgate
6:34
I think cons is I think he should go
6:37
But suddenly if you thought right England starting center
6:39
halves are gonna be stones and cons or it
6:42
would be okay I don't think that's terrible. I
6:44
think I think but it's untested.
6:46
It's done. It's untested and suddenly you think oh,
6:48
yeah I think I probably would be more comfortable
6:50
with dye I hope McGuire's there and I still
6:52
think McGuire is I also think
6:55
Dyer front kind of fits The profile
6:57
of a McGuire type player more than the
6:59
others do and I don't think I think
7:01
Dyer is better With the ball
7:03
its feet Dyer's more comfortable in midfield than McGuire would
7:05
ever be as well So I think
7:07
he I actually think he's got more to his game
7:09
than McGuire's got But I think those
7:11
other players you're listening with the possible probably
7:13
even dunk as well They're not the same type
7:16
of defender and it's important to point out as
7:18
well that when Mark gay
7:20
as deputized for England at center back.
7:23
It's been with McGuire. Yeah, it's not been
7:25
with stones Yeah, and stones offer something very
7:27
very different to what McGuire offers. So I
7:29
do think the balance is is an issue
7:31
there And so all in
7:33
all it's not ideal Is it because
7:35
although it's not the most important player
7:37
to be injured? He'd probably
7:40
be quite near the top of this if you if you
7:42
were doing 26 players talking best was over most important That's
7:44
what I'm saying. Yeah, you're doing 26 players
7:46
for a squad And in order of
7:48
what you don't want to get into your power rankings. Yeah,
7:50
McGuire would be quite near the top I think he would
7:53
be yeah, I've given off slag them off for a love
7:55
to you Yeah, but I mean that's you know, that's
7:57
the way it is again. The only other names tomorrow
8:00
but Southgate hasn't shown that much preference.
8:03
Well he had a bit of a stinker when he played, didn't
8:05
he? Yeah, but I mean... He had a bit of a stinker
8:07
for Milan as well, didn't he? Yeah. In
8:09
the game, it was... It gets an English team in Europe
8:11
and they... Well Chelsea, I was right. You got back a
8:13
little bit there, but fine. I mean, that does count, kind
8:15
of stuff. Jared Brantfordt would be another... I mean, again, he
8:17
took it very untested. So... This
8:20
is how legends are forged. This is how it happens.
8:22
You know, when Maguire first came into the England team,
8:25
he came in ahead of what was a tournament, wasn't
8:27
it? He came in ahead of. Hadn't really done much.
8:29
He played an awful lot. For Star Wars on the
8:31
rise, of course, but he's never
8:33
looked back. Get Brantfordt in there. Everyone
8:36
else has looked back, but he hasn't looked back much.
8:38
Do I look back? I can't remember. Don't
8:41
answer that. Okay, well, you know... That's the big news.
8:43
Let's concern there. So hopefully Maguire will be fit
8:46
and flying for the
8:49
tournament. Now, I
8:51
think one of the big talking... In fact,
8:53
I think it's the biggest talking point of
8:55
this England team is the midfield. It
8:58
seems to be a
9:01
bit of a conundrum, you could say,
9:03
due to England's lack or
9:05
certainly perceived lack of midfielders who
9:07
are comfortable doing some defensive work,
9:10
or naturally that's where they go.
9:13
You know, Southgate has been criticized
9:15
and accused of being too conservative
9:18
generally, but I think
9:20
specifically where the midfielders concern, that's where
9:22
it comes from. Jude Bellingham is obviously
9:24
a huge part of this England team and is playing in
9:26
that advance role, number 10 role, as many
9:28
people would call it. He's been playing further up
9:30
the pitch for Real Madrid. Declan Rice
9:32
is going to be at the base of that midfield, and
9:35
that's where he prefers to be. I
9:37
know Arsenal, he's been used as a more
9:39
kind of box-to-box player, a number eight, as
9:41
people say nowadays, but he himself
9:43
says he prefers to be at the base, and that's where he plays with
9:47
England. Now, back in
9:49
November, we saw Rice and
9:51
Phillips playing as
9:53
they did in the Euros in the central midfield together.
9:55
That was sometimes a three-four-three,
9:58
But it was those two behind Bellingham. The pretty
10:00
certain against Scotland. That's how they lined up as well.
10:02
We'll we'll Phillips and his home. His been terrible as
10:04
we know and it now looks like he'd been injured
10:07
for the rest of the season. so if there was
10:09
a me tiny teensy flicker fight with that I think
10:11
that was a village. He's now very much gone. So.
10:14
If. We are going to assume itself guy
10:16
is gonna play with rice and another at
10:18
the base of midfield. We saw him against
10:20
Brazil he tried comic gallagher their against Belgium
10:22
can be main came to the tape it
10:24
does seem lot that's what it's worth going
10:26
to be. An. Who do
10:28
you think the best replacement would be in that
10:31
specific system? It may not be the system that
10:33
you would like. You've made want to see Foden
10:35
in there with belly when he said that before,
10:37
but if we assuming that he's gonna have another
10:39
hold up with rice in the who'd you think
10:41
is the best places that job so it's a
10:43
really difficult question to answer. And
10:46
I think I will go around the
10:48
house is trying to answer it the
10:50
you have to bear with me so
10:52
I would look at the most. Recently
10:54
relevant competitive games and for England have
10:56
to do that you do as to
10:58
go back about later after go back
11:01
to fall for being the game against
11:03
Italy. In. Qualifying. yeah when I
11:05
b m three one at Wembley thrive and
11:07
I news is that game is Rice and
11:09
Phillips it was when Phillips was wasn't of
11:11
why a busted flush get back in October
11:13
be haven't moved to West Ham by the
11:15
yes I was still around today god levels
11:18
use name is renee thing wrong yeah he
11:20
wasn't be impact as a he played he
11:22
got subs often that games are for people
11:24
who would have remember interest enough. mom gave
11:26
him on that game they did. If I'm.
11:29
But. Adding loves you on the guy and then if
11:31
you go back a bit further in the play France
11:33
a date they lost out to one in the woke
11:35
up as we all know at that put anger was
11:37
still pie for three three to a plane with betting
11:39
on the left of the three, rice in the middle.
11:42
And. That and Henderson Event Henderson on the right,
11:44
right? So. To. Me:
11:47
Like Deck. The rice has evolved
11:49
quite a laws apply since then, and he
11:51
plays really nominally on the left of a
11:53
three frost know, but as you say, east
11:55
by the six of the night. Yeah, Easy
11:57
does everything they have. Any can do everything.
12:00
And so I sometimes, why am I found on
12:02
this? Well I sometimes wonder if it's a bit
12:04
of a red herring when people talk about England
12:06
at the moment playing two Hold Me Field players
12:08
and that being two Conservative because Rice isn't actually
12:10
that Conservative. He can play a role like that
12:12
and I think he's one of those players who's
12:14
so good, genuinely so good that if England were
12:16
playing someone good in the Euros in the knockout
12:19
game and Southgate said to him, you
12:21
just need to sit for a bit, he would do it.
12:23
But he also offers a lot more going forward and before
12:25
he signed for Arsenal a lot of the chat I heard
12:27
was that he can do an awful lot more than he's
12:29
doing and he's got a high ceiling and
12:32
he can improve which he has done. So
12:34
that's all the background to what I'm about to say which is
12:36
that what that means is unless
12:39
England flip their formation, which I don't think they
12:41
will they need someone
12:43
who can perform the role of
12:46
Calvin Phillips about three years ago. And
12:49
there's no real obvious candidate
12:51
to do that. I
12:53
think my personal view is
12:55
that Coby Main is being promoted very, very
12:57
quickly. I think it's easy to
12:59
stand out as a calm head on
13:02
shoulders at Man United at the moment. As I
13:04
mentioned on the show yesterday, you guys didn't necessarily
13:06
agree but that's fair enough. It's
13:08
a lot to ask of him
13:10
although he has looked pretty good when he's been
13:12
given his debut for England. I currently concede that. There's
13:16
been talk of like, because we're in the
13:18
week we're in and they've just beaten Main out of 4-0, there's
13:20
been talk of Adam Waughton. He's playing
13:22
the Championship four months ago. It's a very,
13:24
very early thing to be talking about. But
13:28
that's how good he is though. He is good. We
13:30
don't know how good he's going to be. We don't know that yet. And
13:32
I think it's fine to be okay about that. He's
13:34
fine to just calm down about that. I
13:37
wonder whether there's a
13:39
temptation for Southgate to
13:43
revert to type and be
13:45
unable to resist to play Henderson in there.
13:49
And I will be disappointed with that.
13:51
Here are some other names who have tried
13:53
to play in that. I say
13:55
some other names, one other name. I think it's me.
13:57
Yeah, exactly. Yeah. So,
13:59
that's it. Because we have mentioned a
14:03
copy menu and briefly mentioned Conor
14:05
Gallagher. It's not Gallagher's game though.
14:07
No, exactly. So I think, yeah.
14:11
And I'm sure he won't mind me quoting
14:14
him even though it was a private conversation, but I
14:16
know Henry Winters is a big fan of Trent Alexander-Arnold
14:18
playing in that role. Henry
14:20
Winters out of a job. It's
14:23
not the part of making it. Right. It's a man
14:25
who loves his country. God
14:28
bless him for that. And he's seen him play a lot. I
14:30
don't think it's ridiculous to ask Trent Alexander-Arnold
14:32
to sit in there. It would mean... I
14:34
think it's just too exposed and
14:36
you limit what Rice can do. But
14:39
Rice, I mean, yeah, Rice does like playing
14:41
that role. I know what you mean. You
14:43
want a Georgina type in there or a
14:45
Thomas party. So Rice can go on. England
14:47
don't have that game. I think
14:49
the issue is definitely worth talking about,
14:51
of course, because this is the biggest
14:54
problem of many problems
14:56
that Southgate actually has going into this summer.
14:58
And I think it's not actually been talked
15:00
about that much. How
15:02
many problems he's got to solve
15:04
around selection. The turnover of
15:07
form in players for England across
15:09
this season has actually been quite
15:12
stark. And it's not just
15:14
form, by the way, it's also injuries. Now, I
15:16
suspect that we put to one side the injury
15:18
thing because we assume that every big European nation
15:20
can have this problem. And it's a kick on
15:23
from when the World Cup was during the season
15:25
in Qatar. And the amount of players
15:27
we're seeing missing for injuries is crazy. Now, we've talked
15:29
about that till the cows come home. But if you
15:31
put in the combination of injury issues and
15:34
turnover reform at England, I
15:36
would argue that this is the toughest
15:39
squad naming he's had to
15:41
do. Interesting. Because look
15:43
at the squad at the moment in the most recent game, right? Madison's
15:47
in there. He ain't going to go. Madison
15:49
can't be picked. He's been
15:51
dreadful since he come back from injuries.
15:53
He's contributed absolutely nothing for months. Grealish.
15:58
Nowhere. Phillips. Nowhere.
16:00
I disagree with you on Grealish. But he
16:02
is, relatively speaking Marcus, from where he
16:04
was at the last tournament, he's nowhere.
16:07
But I take your point that there are
16:09
question marks. He's got loads of questions to
16:11
answer, Sarkay. But I think
16:13
this one is the most difficult. Sure,
16:17
injured, cheer will injured, there's so many. You're
16:19
right to point this out. Now
16:22
Maguire. But England still do have a good squad,
16:24
and a squad that can challenge for this trophy.
16:27
Maybe he pushes stones in there then. I don't
16:29
think he's going to do that. I think that,
16:31
I think, Coby Maynew is an excellent option to
16:33
have in there. And I think against Brazil, sorry,
16:36
Belgium. Well even Brazil when he came up, I
16:38
think against Belgium you saw that. And I think
16:40
with the stability that Rice gives, Maynew
16:42
won't believe his luck. Let me give
16:44
you another... And that's actually... Well he
16:47
won't believe his luck because he'll think to himself, hang
16:49
on a minute, I've got actual teammates
16:51
and a strategy of people who enjoy playing. And
16:53
this is also how legends are forged. You take
16:55
chances on young players and they don't look back.
16:57
That's how it goes, circumstances. That's what football's all
16:59
about sometimes. Let me give you another solution though,
17:01
very quickly before you move on. I
17:05
was pilloried for this, and I
17:07
understand why. You get pilloried a lot through
17:09
that. Yeah, that's all part of being me. And
17:11
that's just our own. What
17:14
about this? People don't
17:16
want to do this because they think it shackles in.
17:19
But you could move Bellingham back there. And
17:21
it frees you up to have another option in the
17:23
forward three-up. You do. Well I think
17:25
that the other... Bellingham could control games
17:27
at the top level by the way. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think
17:29
the other way of playing it is you play Rice in that
17:31
sort of pivot role and then you have to number 8. But
17:35
he's not going to do that, is he? He had
17:37
to, he didn't catar. But
17:40
the way I see Southgate's kind of evolution...
17:42
So him and Holland, their evolution
17:44
of their tactics, they seem to just go in
17:46
one direction. Yes, but that doesn't
17:49
mean to say that it's a given that they won't. I take
17:51
the point, which is why when we frame this I said it's
17:53
likely so who do you think is going to slot in there?
17:56
Oh, if you play Rice as a lone pivot... and
18:00
play Foden and Bellingham in front of him, I'll be
18:02
all over that. I just don't think he'll do it.
18:04
Well, okay. I mean,
18:06
it is a huge conundrum, as I say,
18:08
that Southgate needs to answer. I suspect that
18:10
he will go for Mayneu and I hope
18:13
he does because I think Mayneu is a
18:15
lovely player who gives England something different, even
18:17
though he has the grand total of the
18:19
minutes that Mayneu's play for England is quite
18:21
low. You can say the same about Mayneu's team.
18:24
I just think you're going back to the Trent-Exar-Arthi, I mean, how many
18:26
games have he played in the middle of midfield for Liverpool this season?
18:29
Well, Alexander-Ronald is a different thing, but I
18:31
think he could play there, though. But
18:33
here's what I'm trying to get at. We go for
18:35
all these different options and the listeners can hear us
18:38
just spitboarding all these different options. If
18:40
we accept that none of them
18:42
is perfect, then we have to go for the most
18:44
likely to give us success. Which is Mayneu. I
18:46
think Mayneu is... I think it's Bellingham. Well, that's,
18:48
yeah, okay. So you reshape the midfield, which I don't
18:51
think is a stupid point,
18:53
but in terms of those, as you say, those power
18:55
rankings of England players, the most important player for England
18:57
at the moment is Declan Rice. Because
19:00
if he's injured or something happens to him,
19:02
who else are you going to put in
19:04
there? Some would have Harry Kane, understandably, but
19:06
at least Ivan Toney or Ollie Watkins are
19:08
forwards, which is why when England have made
19:10
favourites, I think to myself, I think France
19:12
have got more balance in there. And I
19:14
think, you know,
19:16
you can argue Portugal do, I mean, for crying out
19:19
loud, you know, I mean, if England
19:21
came up against Spain and we're talking about the
19:23
midfield, you know, Rodry pulling the strings, you know,
19:25
I really don't like the sound of that. So
19:28
anyway, it is something that Southgate
19:30
and Holland will need to solve
19:32
and they'll need a plan to come up with. And that, honestly,
19:35
I think could make or break England's tournament. Now,
19:38
before we move on to the second half, we
19:40
did discuss this idea that England are favourites for
19:42
the Euros. Well, Jose Mourinho has
19:45
named France Portugal and England as his three favourites,
19:47
but he said he can't really look past Portugal.
19:49
They said England are just missing that little bit,
19:51
which is kind of what we've been discussing there.
19:54
He can't look past Portugal because he's a Portuguese and
19:56
B wants to manage Portugal at some point. Well, he
19:58
nearly managed England at one point. I
20:01
heard that back in the day remember this
20:03
though, but when I remember it was 2007
20:06
Yeah, I do remember it Marcus But the reason I dismissed
20:08
it at the time is because it was the FA just
20:10
going well He's really good. We'll just link ourselves with him.
20:12
Yeah, you can't blame the FA for that look, can
20:14
you? Yeah, they went after marina after being Bruised
20:17
by Steve McLaren's experience or
20:20
who's the opposite to Steve McLaren? Yeah Oh, this
20:22
guy actually does speak different languages But
20:25
presumably when it comes to Portugal being favorites
20:27
and your laws He's a split anyway because
20:29
of big Paulina drow this thing
20:31
I don't think my losses will be split but you'd like
20:33
to see him do well I mean if he said to
20:35
me Would you like to see us be
20:37
England and then said I'll slide Tafu if you say no Then
20:40
I might have to kind of whimper out of that one or
20:42
if he just just about does enough at
20:44
the tournament Just just to get him over the lines of that
20:46
move to bar munich I
20:51
mean, I just felt like this is the same way that you
20:53
know You know Spurs and
20:55
Newcastle before that back in the day just used

Capello receive from us last week which are
24:15
golf on the shelf along with or trophies
24:17
us with us as an ios medium hall
24:20
and flare up the ass through. Pretty self
24:22
explanatory. this week's tight markers want to get
24:24
your take on his arm The headline is
24:26
as follows: My Pillow in. Flames.
24:29
Chelsea Star should start for England
24:31
at Euro twenty twenty four ahead
24:33
of us know rivals for megastore,
24:35
com or color and said last
24:37
week or with now stop Coal
24:39
Palmer. Over Buckeye Osaka I stories
24:41
that you can ignore Palmer's form and quality
24:43
any longer or how to Moscow to few
24:45
months ago but now you are the best
24:47
players in the Premier League. Player on the
24:49
right but have followed him him. One.
24:52
On the right one central than have rice
24:54
is a low number six and Bellingham have
24:56
found in his ice strokes tens and cold.
24:58
On the right. By. Peers
25:00
of the game assault morass he goes to
25:02
allow fucking data bases boring on again. I'd
25:05
is is once I went away so I
25:07
had it in. was caught a few months
25:09
ago you know a new module mack illness
25:11
and probably never will be A Anyway, the
25:13
salient point is this probably most who wants
25:16
to start Coal Palmer either because sucker overseeing
25:18
Lebanon of. Straight. Away yet. To.
25:20
Suck has been brilliance of the mating season
25:22
back to back England player to if yes
25:25
i spent a while sell a play to
25:27
hold without night so smiley that myself oily
25:29
was play the left wing bucket when the
25:31
lot lower guy spend with do it. Do.
25:34
It the Senate is Paul the we Would
25:36
you agree fly think is a limit to
25:38
how I think it falls into lemon and
25:40
have against two weeks running chiefly because of
25:42
the justification to use yes I have a
25:45
are just said. I.
25:47
Think called Palmer to stop for England and
25:49
some particular enterprising young the said. Are
25:51
you planning on front? That settles lot your was I
25:53
to me or say. Not. My problem, work
25:56
it out of the measure is not as bad as
25:58
I suppose about it is good because some. The
26:00
might say play him that may be on
26:02
the left side of of the front three
26:04
than Foden in the midfield Of the have
26:07
a midfield like like the you like the
26:09
ceiling and I gotta say i that guy
26:11
you'd you'd for this guy to stop basically
26:13
but not banned because Sasha what Michael already
26:16
started on the first names on this on
26:18
the saw exactly of what is doing it
26:20
is undermining himself white by making a stupid
26:22
suggestions around to great place this and and
26:25
and sometimes as we know. An.
26:27
International. Football can be littered. With.
26:30
Players who were brilliant bunch is not bad the
26:32
plaza head of them nice and other the size
26:34
that's the case of he's not a eats heat
26:36
way has to do given said because record England's
26:38
given the season Arsenal have a circus contribution to
26:40
as well. He nice to give south
26:42
got a really big reason to pick him and he has
26:44
to be accepting of that is the same way that. Andy.
26:47
Cole was thirteen, Capturing the no More and
26:49
school what one Goals hundred, maybe a few
26:51
more. Robbie Fowler hottie I framed in your
26:53
Les Ferdinand how the pie filling his. For
26:55
so unhealthy Cyprus if for people too young
26:58
to remember this throughout the nine policy I
27:00
hardly boyfriend know so much as we as
27:02
to understand that that they were brilliant Premier
27:04
league players but England had amazing of applies
27:06
as well. I'm a muslim was it was
27:08
on on on the same and loose or
27:11
so I think it's I think pausing Palmer
27:13
does realistically probably have to go to the
27:15
tournament to the twenty six proposing is stars.
27:17
Yeah I saw the I think Palmer is
27:19
one of those players who will benefit from
27:21
the a extended squats or was other people
27:24
would have him in there even if was
27:26
just twenty three. but at because you have
27:28
to understand touch the second ago other attack
27:30
implies you've been a part of it. Are
27:33
by no means that whole shoo
27:35
ins for the squad and always
27:37
say Gradation Rochefort? Yep Gallagher. Who
27:41
else saw in is not a shoe and bother a
27:43
lot of people as as as ice a lot people
27:45
would say now he's got to have fun but it
27:47
was to my absolute now on Schumann's as you said
27:49
ordinance been there as well. Yeah. I
27:52
mean, think about it. Raheem Sterling is nowhere near be
27:54
was Abbas because he is. I'm rather fond of what
27:56
he did. Rings I was was was undeniable. So yes,
27:58
a disease in my own pottery. Much. They probably
28:00
do or twice example I would have thought so
28:02
but you know it's it's it's ruthless. This the
28:04
really really is you've you've you've gotta would let
28:06
them suffer so we can arose eleven and a
28:08
half Coyote Fabio Capello, Michaela I wanted to for
28:10
going to get flair of the ass. Some publishers
28:13
you're not literally would definitely do that as a
28:15
grand finale of or have a nice house for
28:17
the from his I realize this was all about
28:19
on normal I who's else I was thinking or
28:21
seventy nine hours think him and I we ever
28:23
going to get one and I just have so
28:25
many people do punish wealth of the some fucking
28:27
fit I just over this machine or are we
28:29
cherry picking. The yes yes I really I
28:31
nod or teammates or not or everybody's now
28:34
time for some listen to questions. Remember you
28:36
can send us England questions at any time,
28:38
email us, show up for Braudel com or
28:40
tweet is on X or any time around
28:43
with don't come to my house or sorry
28:45
at the moment he said any time yeah
28:47
we any time it's open the the the
28:49
towels or of employees and everybody lucky the
28:52
authors one about it the first one how
28:54
good October Ah. He says to
28:56
me during the first while others may I may
28:58
sorcerer if one at some clock sorties home for
29:00
the confusion making a salad. Neither of us want
29:02
to raise your questions that I know it's always
29:04
nice to have a Marcus in their act, but
29:06
as rush for dumb enough to get on the
29:08
plane know he hasn't. right? I think
29:10
he could be one of those ones where
29:13
some people might be quite shocked that he
29:15
doesn't go to South Gate shows loyalty supplies.
29:17
Elvis the Rush would has been. In.
29:20
All the south Sky sports bar mean I used to
29:22
be he be. The. Hard to him
29:24
he beat the outhouse to find a school
29:26
where he hasn't voted Ned up at with
29:28
injuries to ease ease. Awesome played not started
29:30
sat much as we started as the old
29:32
game it's ornaments from the south game cove
29:34
against Wales and he started in in in
29:36
the last world cup but I just don't
29:38
think he has been enough I attended is
29:40
a question of of it is not been
29:42
scoring else because he producing some are moments
29:44
the sees as your seven family goes se
29:46
but the a not been scores of but
29:48
it's it's the this is something not right
29:50
there with with Russia as a and I
29:52
thought you know. One. Is often concern
29:54
for sell a human being when you when you
29:56
see them like that. but his his son is
29:58
esa, his energy, his his his qualities of just
30:01
not been there in the way that they have
30:03
them before. It's not like he's been put in
30:05
an effort and even do any doggies in what
30:07
cause? I'm just not quite happening on the pitch
30:10
and he went to England. Maybe that can unlock
30:12
a member that lovely. Always thought against Italy in
30:14
the aforementioned and qualify so do I. Well but
30:16
today in yeah exactly exactly I I I'm afraid
30:19
I don't see the and I think the England.
30:21
Can't. Really? Afford
30:24
to to to bring apply we think will we
30:27
hope he gets up to speed we hope the
30:29
he shakes off whatever is going on so I
30:31
agree I think you look at the did the
30:33
plethora of talent. the England have a nice for
30:35
positions. I. Mean yeah but I'm not that
30:37
long ago we would buy a new in i but with
30:39
a rush for to fight him applause the last. I mean
30:41
look at the season phones As much as one example was
30:44
that the more relevant thing is. Would
30:47
he would he have you? Will? Would he have photo
30:49
molester? Would it would be more. You're not of the
30:51
i think you will be on the left and then
30:53
who's who's the sub of the back out there is
30:56
a Golden as agree with it. can't be rushed for
30:58
yeah exactly. And I think of the the season Golden's
31:00
had an even go get it. Pretty decent accounts and
31:02
spectacular. I think in
31:04
those lenses. Are. Thing is a must
31:06
perform yeah much prefer earth. You look at the
31:08
stuff that Russia has done. The seasons from a
31:10
bit positive about around the turn of the year
31:13
at a decent reform school. A he goes am
31:15
an he but moments in him the exactly does
31:17
is I was in cyber. The problem is. That.
31:21
Not really the issue because everyone knows the qualities
31:23
got. yeah so everyone knows he's a good finisher.
31:25
he if one knows he can he can be
31:27
a man is to try to blaze extra a
31:29
bull wealth but is always gonna have that new.
31:31
The problem is the rest of his around game
31:34
is is suffering here for reasons but maybe I
31:36
fully understand it may just be that because my
31:38
in onto their it all over the place but
31:40
it may be some person things as well if
31:42
fails to me which is a damning indictment either
31:44
sub and is hop last just physically me to
31:46
move a fresh start and as a result I
31:48
think he certainly not going to be. Am.
31:51
The first player to have a bad season the
31:53
miss out on a tournament process was gonna happen.
31:55
About the wow that's a good we the last
31:57
did are other is in our guys at this
31:59
from the real. The life his eyes. There's
32:01
normally one wild card in the squad who
32:03
would you like to see given. A.
32:05
Chance and that lobby was been saying
32:07
this, particularly since I'm we've got twenty
32:10
six. Applies. Going to the years
32:12
as everybody else yeah be seen on fair we
32:14
had more than than other six. Call Palmer was
32:16
a name that a lot of people been sent
32:18
Us feel like. I used to
32:20
the of you could argue that he'd be
32:22
a while. Caucuses have very few minutes twice for
32:24
you and your very few minutes. International episodes
32:26
of that could be an argument other wanna take.
32:28
A. Potential. Answer away from you that basu
32:31
lot lot of people of insight into movies and
32:33
obvious hear that you're not is what I would
32:35
probably say. My. Particular. Choice.
32:38
For. Wall Cars would be one of two plays
32:40
and they would be as the Gordon We one
32:42
of them are he counts because he hopes he
32:44
played a bit into an. Average.
32:47
She has a I was going to be miles he's
32:49
by twice for England and Scotland her back in start
32:51
the season If. He's been good
32:53
to season in a mirror off the back of
32:55
them. Smash him a lot in the that very difficult
32:58
to deal with. I just think he's the kind
33:00
of player that lends itself to a while cause
33:02
election he a very tricky is very unpredictable. was very
33:04
positive. I think you've always going to pick. Or.
33:06
Those pies. We talk about that Palmer Goldman as I.
33:09
That. What I've heard about to see implies
33:11
a mod. A modern football is positivity. the
33:13
price you just go forward and release from
33:15
make something happen you think applies lie com
33:17
at a bigger this Jeremy Dockers a good
33:19
example for yeah I'm cases really good example
33:22
of it for three years always your try
33:24
do something to and and was better that
33:26
I was just of that to that they
33:28
would just be hanging out in the top
33:30
slot see and only really comes alive when
33:32
they received a football so systemic now socialists
33:34
or and and I think that allowed. That's
33:36
probably the biggest criticism of Go Agree this
33:38
is I understand is playing. With a massive
33:40
system which isn't the most successful team. we've
33:42
seen him in domestic football and he was
33:44
a starter when them on the trouble so he's
33:46
obviously adapted to that. Yeah, but now I know
33:49
maybe I'm colored by the army when I
33:51
play. When I was younger I was never
33:53
a Pc. Wildflowers, you whole nice but what
33:55
the I imagine every manage our pride we have
33:57
used to say to wipe law applies. Anymore.
34:00
Come Back is not imply square as an easy fucking
34:02
where he is predictable. I'll give you the As and
34:04
the under. His book really seems to all the time
34:06
recycles the ball a lot I understand who most yeah
34:08
but again in that that doesn't do that as a
34:11
wants to make things happen with the yet on our
34:13
outlook. I agree with you that was going to be
34:15
miles or thing as a hugely exciting place and he's
34:17
a top apply again if England a down. He
34:20
says he brain him on. That is the Walcott of
34:22
which was not played that much for England. He.
34:24
Plays for. A bottom half
34:26
of the table premier league side even opposed
34:28
to finishing strongly for than factually not a
34:30
top hall I might they they still technically
34:33
have finished and it be unlikely to use
34:35
out of order by you as it is
34:37
or palace bad as this Us or but
34:39
but again you think of the the dynamism
34:41
he has, the pace, the and excitement, the
34:43
skills that the ability to shoot from range
34:45
and school great goals and also he is
34:47
adaptable. He can play in midfield three or
34:49
he can play out waddle more. the wings
34:52
icing on the side. I think you should
34:54
start for England and so on but. That
34:56
the question was about Walcott are answer is
34:58
as alley is a squad was nice and
35:00
as I was in that are little small
35:03
for myself am Rothys singularly garcia is not
35:05
a supposition interview supply of across devices of
35:07
course dinner or that's the reason why not.
35:09
Yeah out of horses and then they'd Henderson
35:12
well out of other Molson got called up
35:14
to the on the twenty one's because minute
35:16
got grub yeah I promoted to the first
35:18
one. He. Does so by adjusting for Adam oldest.
35:20
It's a bit of a save him because. We've.
35:23
Talked about him now and he still had those friendlies
35:25
against Brazil, a Belgian of leaves month or two ago
35:27
when of a couple months ago. He. May
35:29
wanna get a chance they the arms of
35:31
he's been advised at the risk of me
35:33
sound a bit too dismissive. Arthritis and I
35:35
are on on the show. Yes they are.
35:37
I personally believe in what item one place
35:40
just my opinion he will host a very
35:42
very top of. He's absolutely brilliant. Everything. Is.
35:45
Absolutely perfect for that role that
35:47
he plays. I. Just think
35:49
the. It's. About time it were in May
35:51
yet like a starting to come into the conversation. I'm sure
35:53
he's played a lot of games the right the past may
35:55
done well. Got the match recently to life's he's made the
35:58
move a genuine I think you go to the top. Are.
36:00
You think is one tournament too early for
36:02
this is our lessons of my is how
36:04
legends a forge towards for the question mark
36:07
is where you got that this is from
36:09
Go light him. To. To hear from
36:11
him is always which English plaid you feel.
36:13
Should have gotten many more caps. Than.
36:16
They did in that time Mccarrick a new
36:18
them as I say. Bless. The only
36:20
answer is yes. And. I I don't think
36:22
that be be great player. He.
36:24
Was a really really talented player. Yeah, Yeah,
36:27
Steve. Bruce. Got
36:29
one for see? Have Verna go watch. Rosie
36:32
should have got more than zero. The fucking
36:34
brilliant. I'd even go for it or the
36:36
reason for ever my United. yeah I did
36:38
it in there when they really became Reagan
36:40
did plays really guys but then the the
36:42
he should have got his place is a
36:45
flight the any other one. I was gonna
36:47
say the spirit of you're going to muzzle
36:49
Caricom's carried still what are they get Thirty
36:51
four cats, something like that. What you should
36:53
have been he should have been carried the
36:55
all one or two others because actually England.
36:58
Either. Even if you have to take the this
37:00
of the bases. And. Splits defensive
37:02
midfielder in the he bought for the
37:04
played in that basically you need is
37:06
someone who had a. Glancing
37:08
interest at least in the defensive side
37:10
of things. so I I agree Carrick
37:13
probably should have had more in arms.
37:15
Messiah: who's got forty yards or maybe
37:17
forty two England caps? Is
37:19
Owen Hargreaves nothing concrete Made his debut off three
37:21
won the Champions League. There are on the other
37:24
times it has scored before that use your device
37:26
that we the chap easy to get lads by
37:28
our i am a nontraditional Korea were on the
37:30
houses at an that sir is call. It was
37:33
such a truncated England career. Because of that bear
37:35
the scars and that the end. It was hectic.
37:37
terrible ins injuries with Burrow because he retired pretty
37:39
early. a bad knee injuries can get past the
37:42
I he was. He was a kind of plat
37:44
that's on the England. Fans.
37:46
And the general public at large didn't really respect he's
37:48
a lot of shit yarn how you my life ring.
37:50
Nibali was a bit of utility man able to know
37:53
why did he played so fullback sometimes a that I
37:55
think that seventy six months the United in the final.
37:58
As he played brought mids you know seems very. The market
38:00
it was insane be able he had he was what
38:02
people say what does he bring him and he was
38:04
lit ravenous. I swore I won the Champions league with
38:06
balmy i haven't to keep the ball was a to
38:08
I think and will come to and six spicy that
38:10
gaming and sports for woman all went to penalties and
38:12
he was the only ones scores pedals if my memory
38:14
serves me correctly. Think. People realize the valley that
38:17
April that by two thousand and six. He.
38:19
Would only be that simply as few years
38:21
later. With the injury start
38:23
to catch up with him and and so so
38:25
I suppose we go wait him if he'd have
38:27
said we kings played you feel should have got
38:30
more caps. That. I think I'll agree. should
38:32
have got more because even if we just five
38:34
more by suppose many more caps is is the
38:36
question so I would Bruce, Carrot Calgary they go.
38:39
Either. David Nugent to keep up the
38:41
he bought the copper yards by a bus for
38:43
the underwriters on behalf of full of fans Bobby
38:45
Zamora. The. Only person
38:47
I've interviewed him football I didn't like. Me:
38:50
Players opposite? More? Yeah. I.
38:53
Was that very very grumpy. And roots
38:55
is he the guy for an interview
38:57
In interesting and charismatic there's a interview
38:59
him. With. Their the film have
39:01
recently said effort better interviews hundred sometimes
39:03
it is down to the in Canada
39:05
is about what from blames his toes
39:07
A Bobby Zamora certainly was a toll.
39:11
Eighty going to have up to doesn't set
39:13
of it was for injury. While we talked
39:15
about the we considered one of the woke
39:17
up with always more up front is a
