Greece Stun Lacklustre England

Goalhanger
About this episode

Is it impossible to get the best out of Foden, Bellingham, Palmer and Saka when they’re playing in the same team? Did England get the defensive balance wrong or do we want to see them take more risks? What will Ollie Watkins be thinking after not getting a start in this game?


Gary, Alan and Micah also pay tribute to George Baldock, who sadly died at his home in Athens earlier this week.
