Tell you what, there is something special about this England side I think. Missing a whole host of quality youngsters last night and on Friday and still cruised to 2 big wins.
Off the field I am even prouder. Listening to Southgate, Sterling and Hudson Odoi post game yesterday having been through the racist abuse they had was a great listen. Fair play to each and everyone one of them, spoke so well, and so clear they are a ridiculously tight unit. I’ve never believed an England national team can go and win something, but that World Cup and the start of this qualification phase makes me start to wonder...maybe, just maybe.
Followed the team round Europe and Russia in recent years but always just for fun rather than expectation. I’ll be in Bulgaria and Kosovo later this year where I expect we will have already qualified for the Euros and no reason we can’t go into that tournament with a real chance. Only France and Belgium better European sides as things stand, with England’s youngsters arguably potentially better. From the 17s to 21s we have some real talent
