I somehow doubt Evans would have the time and space to play the ball he didd had Foster been on the field and closing him down.

Re: Ukraine v England

The Bulgarian ref, who I thought had a good game, was having none of the Maddison/ Saka falling down and screaming every time someone tackled them.

Unlike PL refs they were not allowed to dominate proceedings, with their antics , and thus became less and less effective.

Doesn't matter what I think or any of us think but their manager has seen enough. Loved it last season when we could give...
