[upbeat music] Hello, and welcome to The Guardian Football Weekly. Fortunately, England's draw with Uruguay was three days ago now, so you've probably forgotten all about it. Sadly, we're gonna bring it up again. A lot of nothing, a couple of bad fouls, paper airplanes. Ben White booed for coming on, booed for scoring, booed for giving away a penalty. I guess it's something. Maguire did okay, and then Tuchel said he's fifth choice. Did anyone further their chances? Palmer, Garner, Wharton maybe. We'll look ahead to tonight's European playoffs. Paul Watson takes us further afield, of course. We welcome it. And then to Spurs parting ways with Igor Tudor after quite a disastrous month. They want De Zerbi despite protests from a number of fan groups. And while Tudor lasted forty-four days, it's forty-four years since Roy Hodgson was the Bristol City manager, and here we were thinking he was just meandering through the West Country without a purpose. We'll do all that, discover we are just one step away from the Uruguayan ambassador, answer your questions, and that's today's Guardian Football Weekly. [upbeat music] On the panel today, Barry Glendenning. Welcome.

[chuckles] Sort of. We were forgetting all about it while we were there. It was a very strange
