1:34:08England’s Chaotic Win & Bellingham Shines In Tuchel’s Masterclass
Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by Sky Bet. The opening round of the World Cup group stage is complete, and Gary Neville, Roy Keane and Ian Wright are here to break down all the biggest talking points from the tournament so far.

Thomas Tuchel’s tactical approach and in-game management proved decisive, but how will he set England up for their next fixture? Will Marcus Rashford and Djed Spence come into the starting XI, or will Tuchel stick with the same side that got the job done in the opening game?

Later in the show, boxer Ben Whittaker joins the panel ahead of his upcoming fight. He opens up about whether boxing press conferences are really as heated as they appear, the hardest punch he’s ever taken, and the reality of chasing the sport’s biggest money fights.

This week, Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Wayne Rooney, Roy Keane and Ian Wright are joined by one of the Premier League’s greatest ever full backs, Ashley Cole, for a brilliant episode full of big reveals and funny moments. We start by looking back at Ashley’s early days at Arsenal and how he went from a young prospect at Highbury to one of the best full backs we have ever seen. He talks about the ups and downs, the moments that shaped him and how a loan spell at Crystal Palace changed everything. The conversation then turns to coaching. Ashley talks about the work he has already done alongside Wayne and with England, and why he sees himself stepping into management sooner rather than later. We also revisit his incredible playing career, from the Invincibles and working under Arsene Wenger to joining Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea team. Ash speaks openly about leaving Arsenal for Chelsea, one of the most talked about moves English football has ever seen, and the reaction that followed in the media and beyond.
