2026 World Cup

Harry Kane, England's top goal scorer at WCs. Pretty sure Lineker would have more with more games, like these expanded WCs.

Kane’s movement off the ball is so good, but the likes of rashford are ill equipped to find him.

And I still don’t see it with Quansah, he’s always struck me as massively average at everything.

Which is why I think he would have been a welcome relief from Konate last season..

England flatter to deceive again. I don't get it. It's not inconceivable that we should win the WC once in while. We have a large enough population to choose from, we have probably the most competitive league in the world and some of the best resources. It's weird that we always do so badly. I remember back in the 80's we were told that English players weren't playing the best in the world, because we didn't have any foreign players in the league (honestly), unlike Italy and Spain; then we get told that we aren't great because we don't have enough players playing in foreign leagues (which, apart from Spain maybe, are weaker). We've had some of the best managers in the business - so what is the issue? Why are England so perma-****e? And why do my swears keep getting censored? It's ****ing really ****ing ****tingly annoying! ****************************e********e ********e!

The defence is weak, and the team isn’t clicking at the moment, but it’s only the group stages, a bit too early to be drawing conclusions.

Happy to be told I'm jumping the gun, but I'm sure we both know how this is going to end.

FIFA will pay 100% of Ugarte's salary as part of FIFA's Club Protection Program.

Great goal from Japan against Brazil. Fancied them for an upset here. Come on Japan.

It is coming home. It just hasn't lived in England for decades!

Keep glancing up at this German v Paraguay game and the quality looks awful

[Charly]

I truly hate the music after a goal is scored. Sort of **** Chelsea do

[SB]

Lovely ball in from Wirtz on the left & a good header from Havertz for a goal. 1-1 now

It is coming home. It just hasn't lived in England for decades!

Around the world in 80 years

Dunno about that goal being disallowed
