Episode Notes
Thomas Tuchel’s England World Cup squad is out, and the biggest question is simple, has he called it right?
Harry Maguire is out despite Wayne Rooney insisting he’d have taken him. Phil Foden and Cole Palmer are also left at home, so has Tuchel just dropped three match-winners in one ruthless sweep?
But Wayne doesn’t disagree with everything. Why does he back Ivan Toney’s inclusion so strongly? Does tournament football need goalscorers over flair? And is this the bold, no-sentiment squad England fans have always demanded… or a gamble that could blow up spectacularly?
