England Preview: It's time to foot some balls

England are back in action tonight! After putting those Croatian slugs to the sword, it's Ghana's turn to face the wrath of Tommy Tuchel's boys. Marcus and Luke are here (lamppost flag in hand) to preview the big one. What's England's best centre-back partnership? Is Declan Rice actually fit? And is it coincidental that Luke's very own Gosport is the hottest place in the UK today? Makes you think. GET TICKETS FOR THE NEXT RAMBLE WORLD CUP WATCH PARTY HERE [https://tix.to/WorldCupRamble]!

Not sunny in Philadelphia | 2026 FIFA World Cup

Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland all had their fill once again. Is Erling Haaland somehow underrated? Marcus, Luke and Jim battle with that idea on today’s Ramble. Elsewhere, Marcus and Luke disagree on whether Argentina will be able to deal with tougher tests later in the tournament. Plus, could Algeria and Austria both try and lose their final group game?

Have your Cape and eat it | 2026 FIFA World Cup

More superhero stuff from The Cape! Pete, Vish and Jim carnival into the studio off the back of another miraculous Cape Verde performance, which could help secure their passage to the next round. Yes, you read that right. Elsewhere, Spain dish out a particularly Spanish brand of gubbing, bucking our new theory that key Schengen Area protagonists continue to disappoint this World Cup. Plus: Egypt end their 100-year wait for a win, more DOGSO criminals and an outrageous Pete prediction comes off - and yet somehow he won’t admit it.

A sexy Sunday | 2026 FIFA World Cup

When it comes to Germany, we’re not neutrals. But despite the disappointing ending, we enjoyed the spectacle of their 2-1 victory over Ivory Coast. Today, Marcus and Luke reflect on that, plus Spells (predictably) explains why Hervé Renard has improved Tunisia despite their panelling at the hands of Japan. Elsewhere, Curaçao get a famous point and the “naked” Guru’s prediction is looking a bit better after the Netherlands dispatched Graham “The Cowboy” Potter’s Sweden.

The welcome home motorcade | 2026 FIFA World Cup

Teams are going out? Already?! Here we were thinking there was a round of 48 after this, but Marcus, David and Jim get in the studio to react to Haiti and Turkey's exits. For the latter, it was in especially dismal, dare we say England-like fashion... Elsewhere, did Scotland respect Morocco too much? The US and Mauricio Pochettino's hair continue to impress with another victory which seals their spot in the knockouts. And last but certainly not least, there's an urgent UK burger law clarification from two chefs. Don't say we don't educate you.
