England World Cup Preview: Hope, Fear and Belief

We're on our way. Ali Maxwell is joined by James Allcott for one big England-specific preview before the tournament begins. From Thomas Tuchel's impact and the emergence of Elliot Anderson & Nico O'Reilly and the growing sense that this England team might just have something special, the pair discuss all the reasons for optimism heading into the summer. But it wouldn't be England without a healthy dose of anxiety. They also open the Fear Amnesty Box: concerns about the heat, questions over England's defence, breaking down deep blocks, difficult knockout paths, and whether this team can finally overcome the psychological barriers that have tripped up previous generations. Plus: Croatia first up, Portugal or Argentina in the distance, Thomas Tuchel's leadership, Anthony Barry's influence, and why supporting England might be at its best when you're excited, fearful and hopeful all at once.

Two XIs, one goal: reacting to England’s 1-0 win vs New Zealand

England's final World Cup warm-up ends with a win, and perhaps most importantly: no injuries. Ali Maxwell and George Elek react to England's 1-0 victory over New Zealand in Florida, where Harry Kane's 79th England goal settled a game that saw Thomas Tuchel give minutes to two entirely different XIs across the two halves. They discuss the performances of Marcus Rashford, Djed Spence and Elliot Anderson, and a hugely encouraging senior debut for 17-year-old Rio Ngumoha. Plenty of questions still remain - but this game will have little impact on what happens in 10 days time, so let's not take it too seriously eh? Anyone for a hard tea?
