THE TIMES
About this episode

What a strange night it was for England as they took the show on the road to Southampton. The Times very own James Gheerbrant and Alyson Rudd joined Natalie Sawyer and Gregor Robertson to look back on another win for the Three Lions as they took a huge stride towards Euro 2020 qualification against Kosovo.


Gregor also discusses what exactly is going on with the Scottish National team as it looks like their only chance of reaching next summers major tournament will be through the Nations League Playoffs.


Plus, we look ahead to the return of domestic football, as Alyson explains who the 'Alpha Males' are in the dressing room.
