Episode 203 - How Tuchel Cost England The World Cup Semi-Final and Spain Shutdown France

England's World Cup dream ends in chaos, Lionel Messi and Argentina continue to find a way to win, Spain look like the best team left in the tournament, and the transfer rumours keep on coming. Patrick and Hayden break down both semi-finals, dig into where Tuchel got his substitutions wrong, and cover three big transfer stories: a World Cup quarter-finalist linked with Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham, a highly-rated centre back's surprise move to Bournemouth, and Balogun's reported switch to Serie A.
