It’s the morning after Gav saw Messi play live for the first time and he marvels at the counterintuitive way in which the No 10 finds space and bends the game to his will, while doing very little running indeed.Shane thinks England’s attacking options off the bench could be key in games that last up to 105 minutes, not including extra time. He argues that Harry Kane very much deserves to be ranked alongside Mbappe and Neymar, Gav disagrees vehemently.Also, David, fresh from his Neil Diamond pilgrimage to Manhattan, gauges the level of soccer mania stateside.
