Marcus, Luke and Jim break out a good old fashioned Eaaaaazay after England U21s beat Germany and retained their Euros crown. We wonder which of the squad could push for a senior call-up and ask who Thomas Tuchel was REALLY supporting…Elsewhere, it turns out Jurgen Klopp isn’t a fan of our beloved Club World Cup, but Kaveh Solhekol is here to remind him that he can go fishing instead. Or read a book. Or go outside. Plus, we wonder what’s next for free agent Dominic Calvert-Lewin and, after six months, the siege on Lazio’s prosthetic penis specialist comes to a disappointing end.Please fill out Stak's listener survey!
