On today’s pod: the international break is here, and England’s squad raises more questions than answers. No Trent Alexander-Arnold, no Phil Foden or Jack Grealish, but a surprise return for Ruben Loftus-Cheek and call-ups for Elliot Anderson and Djed Spence. The panel asks how good England must be for us to learn anything new against Andorra before Tuesday’s trip to Serbia.
Elsewhere, Wales try to maintain their good start under Craig Bellamy and Scotland hope to start their qualifying campaign strongly, in an open group with Denmark, Greece and Belarus. The panel also preview a packed World Cup qualifying schedule across the globe, from Nigeria’s early jeopardy to Cape Verde’s dream of a first World Cup via Luxembourg, Kazakhstan and Steve McLaren’s Jamaica.
Plus: Suzy Wrack joins to preview the Women’s Super League season: new signings, a new structure and hopes for a genuine title race at last. Also, Max issues a massive apology to Bromley. Or possibly Crawley.
