The sad tale of Roy Hodgson’s England departure balanced by the joyous normality of Wayne Rooney dressing up as Freddie Mercury for his 40th. An episode of Ramble Uncut in perfect harmony.

Plus, we learn what sort of texts José Mourinho used to send Henrikh Mkhitaryan at Man United.

Today we're sharing the latest edition of Ramble Uncut – our weekly bonus episode normally only accessible to our Patreon members. It's an extra dollop of wonderful footballing nonsense. Enjoy.
