Mailbag: Can England afford to play exciting football?
Thomas Tuchel had a dig at Gareth Southgate, claiming England played with no identity last summer, more focused on avoiding elimination than chasing glory. Ouch.
But is it even possible to play "exciting" football at international level? Marcus, Jim & Pete debate that on this week's Mailbag.
Plus, does Jim Ratcliffe have a point when he talks about prioritising Manchester United's "faithful" supporters?
