England to make Swiss roll over, Ronaldo...

Folding Pocket
About this episode

How come Merse is so confident England will beat the Swiss and win the Euros? Why should Gareth Southgate have no excuses for the quarter-final? And who needs to have a word with Jude Bellingham? Merse and Jeff discuss all of that plus whether the Euros have harmed Southgate's chances of landing a job with a top club, the enduring drama that is Cristiano Ronaldo, why France are dull to watch, their top 5 players of the tournament so far and whether Erling Haaland would score 60 goals in the National League. ANNOUNCEMENT: Our next episode on Saturday is another Q&A with Merse and Jeff. Has Merse asked out any more pop stars (see last episode)? We can't promise more revelations like that but you can ask them about almost anything to do with football or themselves.
