Summary
Jimbo is joined by Duncan Alexander, Carl Anka and Benji Lanyado as the Lionesses do England proud once again.
The Athletic’s Charlotte Harpur gives us the lowdown from Brighton as England come from behind against Spain and gut it out to reach the last 4 of Euro 2022. Can they break their semi-final hoodoo?
Unhappy Hammer Benji gets hot under the collar about Jesse Lingard and his potential move to Forest ahead of West Ham, as we also discuss who’s had the strongest transfer window so far.
Despite the vuvuzelas, the Jabulani and the dirtiest final of all time, we attempt to show some love to the 2010 World Cup.
And Carl and Marcus Rashford have another book out today. But does it have as good a title as Asamoah Gyan’s?
