Its the big one: Nathan, Nick, & Caleb take a detailed look at both the Euro 2020 & Copa America finals!

Starting with England vs Italy: the trio debate if Southgate could revert to the 3 at the back, what does Italy’s “plan B” look like, & why the midfield is where this final will ultimately be won. They also look back at the two semi-finals, examine why Italy struggled against Spain, & why England just had too much in the tank for Denmark.

Over to Brazil vs Argentina: the lads debate which team actually looks better on paper, the absurdly strong depth of the Brazilian team, & if Argentina’s midfield three are just well-balanced enough to give them the edge. Plus a discussion on the brilliance of Messi throughout the tournament, & why this could finally be his moment in a blue & white kit.
