  • 'HE'S NOT AT ENGLAND LEVEL!' - The Changes Thomas Tuchel MUST Make vs Panama!
    Jun 25 2026

    The World Cup group stages are at the business end and there’s plenty to unpack this week.

    Natalie & Sam sit down to discuss England's 0-0 draw with Ghana & Scotland's 3-0 defeat to Brazil which leaves their qualifying chances hanging by a thread.

    The team begin by giving their reaction to Scotland's final group stage game against Brazil, Scotland's back 4 aren't good enough at this level, why Scotland have no superstars and what chances do they have of qualifying for the knock out stages.

    They then turn their attention to England vs Ghana with Big Sam giving his analysis on how to break down a low block like Ghana as well as sharing his frustration with the lack of crosses into the box.

    There’s also a deep discussion as Sam ranks the England players based on their world cup performances in the first 2 group stage games before turning his attention to his squad that he'd play against Panama including a change in formation!

    To round things off, the duo chat about the possibility of Thomas Tuchel resting players against Panama, will we see either Ivan Toney or Ollie Watkins and what score does Sam think the game will end?
