They shouldn't even be the present. And, Lee Dixon is a prick.

"Aguirre, coming in at REAL SPEED!"

It's called a tackle, mate. Behave yourself.

What a run by Marcus Rashford! Electric pace down the left wing. I'd gladly like to see him return to Villa Park!

If you'd told the 90s me that one day a centre half who was a regular for AC Milan would only be a backup for England, I probably wouldn't have believed you.

Problem with a trial game like this is that it's generally every player playing for himself.

Rashford's run is about the only bit of excitement, we've seen so far.

If we got champions league I'd like to hope we could be in the running for him, But I guess wages are the issue.

To paraphrase CD, you can't really get Uruguay's kit wrong, but Nike seem to have managed it with aplomb.

Just came on to post that. Uruguay have left a few of those in now.

Absolutely. Strange choice for a friendly opponent tbh. Uruguay have been proper dirty c**ts for the best part of a century.
