Ha ha, the Guardian has got a very clear eyed view of this

Half-time analysis: In the BBC studio, Gary Lineker, Rio Ferdinand, Micah Richards and Frank Lampard are drooling over what they’ve just seen from England. It beggars belief.

Phil Foden, who has done nothing, is being whispered of in tones that can only be described as reverential. It’s utter cobblers and a cynic could be forgiven for thinking Gary and chums have been issued with a diktat to be less critical of Our Brave Boys.
