It is ‘patronising’ apparently to suggest the team ranked 43rd in the world is an easier opponent than the one ranked seventh. Mediawatch is grumpy today.
Cristiano Ronaldo has been pushed out of the Euro 2024 team of the tournament so far, with Liverpool represented and a disgruntled Manchester City player in.
Gary Neville has explained a ‘problem’ Gareth Southgate and England look set to face against Slovakia in the last 16, as Keane picks out two teams to ‘avoid’.
Mason Greenwood could be playing under De Zerbi next season as transfer expert David Ornstein has revealed ‘positive talks’. Or, he could return to Man Utd…
England have stumbled upon a stupidly advantageous path to the Euro 2024 final, potentially avoiding all the favourites as Gareth Southgate does it again.
The £51m midfielder is just one of a number of players ‘discussed’ in talks between Man Utd and PSG, who have a ‘very good relationship’.
England do look a bit tired. And it’s little wonder as two of their number have clocked over 5000 minutes this season and there are many not far behind.
Big Sir Jim Ratcliffe has been watching the Euros as the Man Utd chief is in talks over signing a one-goal Seria A forward after he played quite well against ...
Bukayo Saka has been poor for England since that first game v Serbia but what do you expect with Kyle Walker? Something has to change…
Austria jump from the middle of the Euro 2024 pack into the top three after coming out top of Group D ahead of France and Netherlands.
Thank you, Georgia. As England-centric fans of fun football, giant killings and Cristiano Ronaldo strops that could not have gone better.
The Euro 2024 group stage has concluded and it’s knockout ball from here on out until the final on July 14. Here’s how it all works.
The group stage is over at Euro 2024 and this is how it all fell into place. TL;DR: England you lucky, lucky so-and-sos.
If it’s better to be lucky than good, then England must be the best team ever. The draw has opened up for them spectacularly. If they can take advantage…
Doku was infuriating and Trossard did nothing. Their flaws are as obvious as Lukaku’s for Belgium, who got lucky against Ukraine and pay the price in the last 16.
TV punditry is a massive part of the feel and vibe of a summer tournament – but who has been worth watching this summer?
Almost every England player has had a kicking now and it’s the turn of Arsenal pair Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka.
Implementing a period of transition and maintaining success are usually mutually exclusive in football, but Argentina could pull it off.
Ruud van Nistelrooy returning to Manchester United as an assistant is weird until you realise he will replace Erik ten Hag during The Caretaker Season.
England were pretty bad against Slovenia in Cologne, but they absolutely were not alone in that regard, while rules and records were both ‘broken’.
We will have every Premier League transfer in the summer of 2024 and we start with confirmed releases and deals arranged already.
There’s some England positivity in the Mailbox after a better second half v Slovenia, but there are questions being asked about Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham.
England were mildly better against Slovenia than against Denmark, though much of the positivity came from the bench. So where’s the clamour?
There are still only five players with two goals at Euro 2024, and none of them can displace Mbappe and Kane from the favourites’ spots.
England, Harry Kane and Gareth Southgate all get a pasting after that 0-0 draw with Slovenia. This is like Brexit all over again.
England have won Group C and are safely into a knockout game against a third-place lucky loser in the easier half of the draw. It’s all going well, then…
That was not in the script. Austria have won Group D, demoting France to second and into the same half of the draw as Spain, Germany and Portugal. Oof.
We know that England are only going to bring in Conor Gallagher but fans in the Mailbox would like to see Anthony Gordon and Adam Wharton.
Aston Villa, Chelsea and Everton have been accused of ‘player laundering’ to comply with PSR rules. Will the Premier League block Omari Kellyman’s move?
There’s more at stake this summer for Brazil striker Rodrygo than the chance to lead his nation to a tenth Copa America title.
