Fortunately for me, it’s on DAZN here in Germany so I might tune in.

I just can't get myself worked up for England any more. It just seems to happen in a parallel world from what football usually is to me (which is Forest) with these star players from a league we haven't even played in since I was a kid let alone had any connection with the England team itself.
Even in the euros when we did well, I still didn't get really excited about it.

I'm the same, international football used to be the pinnacle but it's just meh!. My lad put the game on v Swiss and I thought it was the under 21s at first as I hardly knew anyone. Only kane playing confirmed it was the 1st team.
Boring and uninspiring friendly this week for what?

I feel much the same. After watching the first fifteen or so minutes of desperate possession football, mostly between the back five, I invariably switch over to something else, anything else. Feeling that this England team cannot win playing such boring football. Then I look later and they have won. How?

Well, one of the Ivory Coast players completely losing his head and getting himself sent-off in the first half of a friendly certainly helped.

Want this set of friendlies has highlighted to me though is how great the nations league is. I know people derided it but my god compared to friendlies it’s so much better.
Also for me national football is the pinnacle. National footy and club footy don’t really clash much at all so I don’t get the apathy to national football.
We can all pick parts we don’t like about each. Best thing about national football is you don’t get the glory supporting and you have unity. Club football is great because that’s your every week bread and butter stuff and it’s a chance to support your local team.
Pays your money takes your choice. I love both and I have never felt Forest hampers my England support or vice Vera. However totally agree friendlies are boring and shite.

I don't think this is true. When I was in sixth-form and at university most of the British-born with Asian heritage chaps that I came across supported Brazil or Argentina.

It was amazing how many English fans suddenly became Jamaican when they qualified for the world cup

I think someone up there loves Gareth. Couldn't have got an easier group if he'd picked them himself.

He needs to concentrate on the Football team instead of trying to be a fukin MP.

Where's Franco when you need him? Been banging on about us going to Wembley for years, we finally go and win there and he's nowhere to be seen!

I actually like David Beckham, I don't care what anyone says. Great honest interview and gives a better insight into the England team of those days.
Posted on here before, but I’ve met David Beckham and he is in person an entirety different bloke than that portrayed in the media.
G. Neville’s piece with him is excellent, and well worth anyones time to watch.

Beckham went down in my estimation when he accepted a shit load of blood money when he agreed to be an ambassador for the Qatar World Cup

I'm entirely indifferent to the guy. I still wonder just how a fairly average Prem footballer who is hardly a charismatic individual builds up such a persona.

Has he singed yet?
No problem with Beckham, though his eldest son and his efforts to be a photographer and chef are a bit laughable.

I remember when Romeo apparently wanted to be a tennis player when he was about 14-15 but apparently wasn't doing much about it other than them talking about it and putting crap on instagram.
Andy Murray won the junior orange bowl at 12, and moved to Barcelona at 14 to play in a tennis academy.
Coco Gauff was winning matches on the pro tour at 15.
Romeo Beckham was posing on tiktok.

He's done alright, but it does feel like its time to go. At international level, I feel every manager has a shelf life and sometimes you need a new voice.
I am keeping my expectations low though, given that I don't really have any faith in the FA making a forward thinking appointment. I'll just be happy if we avoid appointing some turd like Gerrard or Lampard (when he eventually gets sacked from Everton) and at least employ someone who is somewhat competent.

More than most managers get at international level to be fair, even some successful ones.
