Welcome into the latest edition of ESPNFC. I'm Dan Thomas joined by Craig Burley here in the

studio later on. We'll look ahead to the return of domestic football across Europe, but we'll kick

things off with some interesting quotes attributed to Thomas Cookechall. Just a reminder, of course,

they went to Serbia, they won 5-0, they played very well. There was no, for example, Cole Palmer,

Trent Alexander Arnold,

no Foden, or Jude Bellingham, and it's Jude Bellingham that people are suggesting that maybe Thomas Tuchel was talking about in the interviews afterwards. This is what he had to say. There was

no attitude after a mistake. There was no frustration. There was no waving, there was no eyeballing,

there was no bad words.

It was just a team ready to work and put 90 minutes effort in.

If a big player misses out on a tournament, we need to have solutions.

If he misses a camp, we need to have solutions.

We have to focus on the guys who are available and who are ready to be

the best versions of themselves and the best teammates possible. And this is what we did.

Now for more on this, Lady Manua joins us, but I want to start with Mark Ogden. Mark,

private session and he's been asked the question about the players that weren't there, could they get back into the team? He wasn't specifically asked about Bellingham. But those quotes, you'd suggest that, you know, I never see Trent Alexander Arnold or Foden or Col Palmer doing the things that Tuchel is talking about, the eyeballs, the frustrations. That's true Bellingham. I mean, he's mentioned it before in the sense that, as we know, he called his behaviour repulsive last season and he apologised for that he said that that's Jude Bellingham. I mean, he's mentioned it before in the sense that, as we know, he called his behaviour repulsive last season, and he apologised for that. He said that that's what his mother felt that Jude Bellingham was on the pitch, not himself, but still, it was a strong word. But, well, repulsive is probably overdoing it, but we know at times that Jude Bellingham's behaviour on the pitch is unsavory. It's not very pleasant. So there's an issue there. The issue with Jude Bellingham is that, you know, he's one of England's best players. He's a moment's player. He's got a big goal in the Euros. But he's not particularly popular within the camp. We know that there are issues with the FA. I've been told a few times that

Jude Bellingham's parents or certainly his dad is an issue, he's a challenging personality, shall
