Gary Neville says ‘something is not right’ with Jude Bellingham and has called for three changes to the England team for their Euro 2024 last-16 clash with Slovakia.

Given the 21-year-old’s sensational first season at Real Madrid, in which he won La Liga and the…

Well, England’s latest outing was a fairly missable event. Unless you were perhaps Slovenian, or one of those radical football heads who really loves the purity of a game without goals. The metric that is the noisiest, per Michael Cox, and can mislead. But it did not really mislead in England’s 0-0 draw. Slovenia needed a point to qualify for the knockout stages, so their defensive shutout was completely in keeping with their aims –…

It is ‘unrealistic’ to expect Kobbie Mainoo to turn around England’s woeful Euro 2024 campaign, Jamie Carragher has warned. England have qualified for the knockout stage as Group C winners but only after another lacklustre performance in the goalless draw with Slovenia on Tuesday night. Despite fierce criticism, Gareth Southgate would make just one change to his starting XI for the match – replacing Trent Alexander-Arnold with Conor Gallagher.

Slovenia icon Josip Ilicic came on in the 75th minute for Benjamin Sesko to help his side secure a point against the Three Lions. The result means that they finish third in Group C, enough to guarantee a spot in the last-16 where they could face Portugal. But for Ilicic,…
