Just done a couple of broadcast interviews and been asked whether there was any tension in the England camp over the post-match interviews at Miami Stadium. No. Firstly, players inhabit a bubble largely away from furious online debates. Secondly, players spoke publicly last week, especially on the back of the Stones/Rice wind-up on Tuchel in the Azteca, of their liking for him, and his emotional intelligence. Thirdly, players know that anything Tuchel says about improvements is obviously for the best. He’s driving standards. Fourthly, England players all know how close they are to achieving something historic and nothing will distract them from that mission. Fifthly, if anybody is upset about a few home truths then they shouldn't be in an elite dressing-room. At points in England’s past, managers have tip-toed around issues. Not Tuchel. He identifies a problem, devises a way to address it during the match and then mentions it openly afterwards. He’s honest. He has a demanding, winning mindset. Like Jude Bellingham. It’s why England have a chance of beating Argentina. The elite mindset of Tuchel, Bellingham, Harry Kane and others. Challenging each other, driving them all on in a week that could define their lives and legacy. #ENG #FIFAWorldCup







Christian Pulisic is a prime example of the United States not having its best athletes playing soccer There’s just no way there aren’t guys in the NBA & NFL who wouldn’t be better than him if they would’ve started playing soccer at a young age He’s a wimpy small athlete

Here's what I'm not interested in - Belgium crying they have to play us with a full roster. They really want to play us without one of our best players. Wow, what great sportsmanship. I get it if others are pissed, but Belgium thinking it's unfair to play our whole team is weak.



The player who is fouled is the one who should take the penalty.
