Hope this WC disaster buries the idea that being an elite club manager has any real bearing on international tournament football or that it's worth spanking money on. Spain, Germany, Argentina, France all won things by promoting coaches from their internal system. We throw £££ at Capello and Tuchel.

He had a shocker against Greece but I still think Lee Carsley winning back to back U21 Euros with young English players is a more telling resume than managing Chelsea & Bayern. Löw, de la Fuente, Scaloni etc did alright

Not saying tournament coaching is just vibes but other nations don't seem dazzled by PPT presentations and management-speak in the way we seem to be. They just pick good players and trust them, while we watch ours get straight-jacketed by some grand vision

This close to a World Cup with this many brilliant players, England should be absolutely buzzing but Tuchel's trying his best to Graham Taylor it. Get it wide to Andy Sinton, see if he can stick it in the mixer for Brian Deane.

Mad that the Oscars can have a guy walk up and lamp the host and still go out live yet the BAFTAs are on two hour delay just in case someone mentions Palestine or His Royal Highness Prince Andrew the Duke of York

The only upside of Trump having one of his horse in a hospital days is you get to watch our politicians forced to think on their feet without their focus grouped safety blankets. FYI they are SHIT at it

Obviously pleased Foden is back in the England squad but also slightly disappointed because I was looking forward to being angry he'd been left out. That's how I roll. I still have Trent for that I guess.

Saying prince Andrew doesn't deserve his titles or his royal lodge suggests the rest of them do deserve their titles and their houses which is why he might as well keep the lot if you ask me. wgaf
