The Debate

The Independent’s Miguel Delaney and David Friel of the Scottish Sun look ahead to tomorrow’s back pages and start with Phil Foden fighting back after receiving criticism for his performance against Serbia. Kobbie Mainoo is then discussed as Declan Rice’s best potential partner in midfield as well as the relief he’s shown in Erik ten Hag keeping his position at Manchester United. Cristiano Ronaldo is then looked at by Miguel Delaney and how the forward still deserves his place in the Portugal squad, despite being 39 years old. David Friel tends to agree with all of Andrew Robertson’s comments in his press conference as Scotland look to improve from their performance against Germany. Finally our guests agree something has to be done about the number of games players are forced to play each season after the African Cup of Nations looks like it could clash with the Champions League as well as the Premier League.
