I mean, the French understandably upset me.

The foul on Simon is disgraceful.

And the FA say to Ramsey...

do you have to pick styles?

Maybe that'd be nice.

After he's played like that, maybe you just leave him out.

And Ramsey's, well, okay, then I resign.

I'm picking styles or I go.

And the FAA, okay.

But again, that shows Ramsey's stubbornness, his strength of will, his single-mindedness.

It also shows how the FAA

more concerned about the perception of the team than winning games?

Are they focusing more on the ambassadorial role, I think?

Yeah, I mean, I can't, maybe there are examples, I can't think of any example of a manager of a football association voluntarily leaving out one of their key players because of an on-field offence.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, it is.

But it actually doesn't attract as much attention as the other shadow, which is the fact that Jimmy Greaves has received a gash on his shin that requires three stitches.

And that's going to keep him out for the quarterfinal.

So Hurst comes in, obviously, for that quarterfinal, never loses his place.

But Greaves would have been available for the semi-final.

So we'll come to that selection decision when we get to the semi.
