What's your greatest World Cup game?

[mosestsarai]

Micky had no idea what those 2 were talking about, he never got to shoot a penalty in his life, what a legend😂😂😂😂

[ShinyChamelion]

its simply the greatest podcast and these clips are always so good

[VoiceOfThe]

Watching this after Kane’s just missed it....

[MrAguila]

Really interesting to hear them talk about the walk to the spot. Not something you really hear players talk about in much detail

[discodavid]

Everyone forgets what a peach off a cross/corner that was for the “sol goal” from Anderton and then it the confusion off that goal getting disallowed that Argentina caught England on the hop with a fast break that for my money they would have almost certainly scored from but for a last gasp tackle from Anderton who had run the full diagonal length off the pitch from the corner flag to literally just make that tackle in time …… think it was around the 80th (?) minute if you watch the game again. Because we lost the shootout everyone forgotten this but 1. Think how much more it would have hurt had we lost 3-2 in normal time had Anderton not got back literally seconds after we could/should have won it by the same score line after sol’s goal got ruled out … and 2. how important that tackle would have been had gone on and won the shootout!

How does Micah Richard’s not remember this? He’s older than me and I remember it

England will have wished Kane had Shearers bottle

[DCC-honk]

Best England team since 66 and frankly the last one to show any real fight when it mattered. A shame they didn’t get a chance to progress further. That being said, if Argentina didn’t advance we would never have gotten Bergkamps wonder goal in the next round.

[iangascoigne]

Lineker’s telling the truth, Shearer cost England a place in the next round, yet it was Beckham who got all the abuse.

[VibhanshuBisht]

That Kane observation did not age well.

[CraigA]

Micah’s contribution - Zilch as always!

[yingzheng]

I have a theory to do practicing penalty just like how volleyball player before they make a serves. There is a pattern before doing that so you can calm your mind by doing the pattern

[fullspeedaheadbarcelona]

I love Richards but for a man in his job he has hardly any football history knowledge 😂

[loganwong]

Could someone tell me what accent Gary is speaking in the video? 🙏🏾🙏🏾

Best I’ve seen England play… even better than euro 96… most sophisticated style of play and all over a very Argentina side.

Seaman
Neville adams campbell
Anderton ince beckham le saux
Scholes
Owen shearer

Teenage Owen was shear pace, Scholes being played in correct position, Beckham spraying passes from midfield, ince breaking it up and distributing, shearer being shearer two wings backs with quality going forward and good on the ball. Spurs campbell, the best version before he destroyed himself, adams peak career, seaman.

Personally England should have kept that formation for the next 10 years and could have won something blooding Lampard and gerrard into the ince beckham roles…. With a more defensive playing against the best teams.

England played 442 to keep becks in the side on the right wing but it stopped them from achieving anything as meant Scholes was on the left or gerrard. Should have played a diamond… could have even had gerrard playing odd roony up top with Scholes and Lampard in behind and a Barry type.

Oh well… it is how we play now just with a defensive minded coach who played 3 dms in the midfielder positions. Workmanlike and effective but watch this Argentina and England game as see how England could play

[Tuffluk]

Gary missed a penalty against Forest in 1991 FA cup final

[cgs]

This didn’t age well kane taking pens 🤣🤣

[mr.z.]

You can tell Alan is still bitter about that game.

[jimclawley]

Such a good England side. Should’ve won that match
