Harry Kane gets the job done, no offence...

About this episode

Poland’s guard of honour is all but a formality. Marcus, Jim and Vish unpeel themselves from the ceiling after England’s latest drubbing.


Mason Mount continues his rise from teacher’s pet to England mainstay, while Harry Kane’s bloodlust is as strong as ever. We also check in with our Junior Brave Boys, who continue to flourish under Aidy Boothroyd's dazzling brand of football.


But it can always be worse: just ask Ireland. We discuss Stephen Kenny’s nigh-on-impossible task of filling the inimitable big Mick’s big shoes. There’s also oversized goalposts in Switzerland, disappearing refs, and Pep Guardiola staring at Ilkay Gundogan while he sleeps. All in a day’s work.
