Welcome to the Scotland International Roll of Honour, Lyndon Dykes 📜 👏 #CIVSCO

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿WC '26 Squad. Pickford,Henderson,Trafford..James,TAA,Livremento,O'Reilly,Hall..Guehi, Stones,Konsa,Maguire..Rice,Anderson,Wharton..Bellingham,Palmer,Rogers,Foden..Saka,Madueke,Rashford,Gordon,Eze..Kane,Watkins

@henrywinter Worrying signs that Tuchel is going to be a problem...

If England are without Kane at any point at the World Cup (God forbid) … why not try out now a real No 9 like Solanke, rather than a false one like Foden (who’s better elsewhere)? Or look at Rashford or Gordon, who can both play through the middle. #ENG

@henrywinter Got off scandalously lightly after the Iceland debacle...

… it’s been a decade since Hodgson left the England job, looking totally drained at 68. But Bristol City will be his fourth job since. Short-term role at the club but long-term passion for the game. Column. 2/2 open.substack.com/pub/henrywinte…

Roy Hodgson’s enduring love of the game, and especially being back on the grass and coaching, should be celebrated… 1/2

@henrywinter Who's making up these subs rules???

England and Japan can each make up to 11 subs. Second half will be like Piccadilly Circus. #ENG

@pinkun @NorthernIreland @Cymru Blackburn manager releasing a player back to help beat a relegation rival???.

#NCFC defender McConville one of a @NorthernIreland quartet released back to their clubs. Not involved in Tues friendly against @Cymru 🔰No mention of any injury issue

@henrywinter Bellingham needs to be a box to box '8' in the mould of bryan robson or gerrard, alongside Rice....allowing Palmer to play as the '10'

England are not in the class of France, Argentina or Spain. But they do have some exceptional talent. Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane are world class. So is John Stones - at his best. Trent Alexander-Arnold is world class - in possession. Declan Rice is having the season of his life. There are more reasons to be positive going into this tournament than negative. But England have to be bold and play to their strengths.  Imagine if England were bold and, if all fit, went into the World Cup… Pickford; Alexander-Arnold, Stones, Guehi, O’Reilly; Anderson, Rice; Saka, Bellingham, Gordon; Kane.  Stones would have some covering to do of Alexander-Arnold when he raced upfield. Bellingham gets heavily scrutinised but he’s a big-game player, a winner and used to pressure at Real Madrid. He has to start. England also have an exceptional head coach in Thomas Tuchel who can make the right changes at the right time. England have a chance of progressing to the quarter-finals of the World Cup and then anything’s possible. But only if they are bold. Not gung-ho. But bold. Risk/reward. #ENG

@FootballInT80s Was it an 'error' ??!?

On this day in 1992: An error of judgement from Liverpool goalkeeper, Bruce Grobbelaar leads to a lovely goal from Sheffield United’s Brian Deane just before half time. The Blades win 2-0 with the striker grabbing another goal in the second half.

@dan_brigham 'image' ?!?

Honestly can only feel sorry for Ipswich fans right now. Overnight, their club has destroyed its image, with their leadership opening their arms to the UK’s foremost bigot. And for what?

@johncrossmirror Now picking a player who walked out of a world cup ahead of TAA. His face must really not fit. You journos need to find out why??!?

Ben White called up to England squad

@henrywinter If Alex-arnold can't get in when Reece James is injured...his face clearly doesn't fit

No Watkins, Trent, Shaw. Maguire, Mainoo, Calvert-Lewin, Solanke, Tomori return. Steele, Garner called up. Very significant squad, 35 names, World Cup 26 comes from this. #ENG

@FootballCliches @CDEccleshare @D_C_W Will pundits continue to trot out the "the carabao final will have a phsycological effect on the winner/loser" line ,now arsenal are 8 points clear?

Recording FOOTBALL CLICHES with @CDEccleshare & @D_C_W on Monday... Let's have your questions, observations, pleas for football-linguistic investigation, footballers' names in things & anything else at all for the Adjudication Panel Cheers!

@OAAFC1895 Its a dressing room..not a hospital

The Grimsby fans was class today their players and staff not so much! The state they left the changing rooms 🤦‍♂️😢

@__scottsaunders The signs were all there at what a prick he is at Hull

“My players wanted to be around the ball, to respect the ball” What kind of nonsense did I just hear?

PARIS MAGHOMA 👑👑👑👑👑👑

@Matt_Law_DT Definite relegation....

Surprised that among all the Redknapp, Sherwood, Mason and Sean Dyche shouts of who could go into Tottenham for the final nine games that Chris Hughton hasn't had more of a mention. Historical link to Spurs, calm nature and not out of management *that* long. He'd be my pick.

Igor Tudor making Southampton's Ivan Juric appointment look inspired..

@SammieDI80 Long vs portsmouth last season rivals that..

Ignoring the obvious one (that bad he changed his name after it) What is the worst #NCFC individual performance from a player?

Liam Manning on Town fans sarcastic cheer for the first shot on target in the second half. #htafc
