Summary

The Athletic's Adam Hurrey, David Walker and James Maw bathe in some more Euro 2020 pedantry, including whether Patrik Schick really qualifies as "that man", if Turkey's "dark horses" tag was the biggest scam of the summer, the ludicrous poses of Roberto Mancini and just who England fans are "clamouring" for now.

Meanwhile, the Adjudication Panel explore the art of newspaper player ratings, the Unofficial Football World Championship and whether a goalscorer can "complete a brace".
