    Yeah I’m not massively bothered, gamesmanship is part of the game. You also know my thoughts on international football so couldn’t care less about this instance. Just saying what the reaction would be if it happened against us.

    A lot of fuss over a bad penalty, truth be told.
    He shouldn’t have scuffed the spot, but I don’t believe for one second that the penalty taker didn’t check the surface before putting the ball down.
    He went for the top corner and got too much under it. It happens.

    Iceland’s penalty miss has nothing to do with James anyway...they missed because I was yelling ‘Sky it’ at the tv.

    From the Beeb...

    "FA investigating allegations against Foden and Greenwood
    Some big breaking news coming out of the England camp.

    The Football Association are investigating allegations made against Phil Foden and Mason Greenwood, with the expectation that the pair will be asked to leave the England camp.

    We will have more on that shortly"...

    They breached the bubble so they've been kicked out of the squad.

    Apparently they were caught bringing girls back to the team hotel. Idiots.

    That sounds like an excuse...they are highly paid professionals being given a chance to play for their country. If you can’t behave for a few days, then will they ever be reliable. Let’s hope they have learnt a lesson. They could have got the game cancelled...after everyone else put so much effort into trying to make it go ahead.

    Yes it is a bit stupid to do as the team are in a bubble, but lets all be honest. As an 18 year old lad, would you not try and get away with bringing a girl back to your hotel room in the same circumstances?

    I know I would! Remove them from the squad and tell them to not get caught on video next time :emoticon-0102-bigsm
