Jordan Pickford has a thick **** accent. Is that considered like a typical working class Geordie accent? Big performance from him.. There are some really humble likeable players on this England team, personified by Pickford and Dier as well. Very pleased for him.

He's from Sunderland rather than Newcastle which basically the same thing but they'll tell you they're completely different accents.  It doesn't sound as bad as some folk from round there.

You're not wrong. I said to the missus (who thinks all footballers are neanderthals, anyway) that Dier came across OK, but Pickford (first time I've heard him speak) is clearly thick as pigshit. It's not just the accent, he's totally inarticulate.

Are there any intelligent English footballers? They are few and far between. Lampard is the only one that springs to mind. 

Southgate

I thought Dier had the weirder accent.  It may just be the way he talks or having grown up in Portugal he has a slight difference to his accent.

England win in an scrappy, ugly match.

I can’t decide if you predicting a win means we’ll actually lose, or if we’ll win 6-0 ;)

In fairness I was pretty close yesterday and James not being fit made a big impact. Sweden are very solid at the back and England are struggling to make chances in open play since the level of opposition has improve. Sweden will be very hard to break down but I think England will nick one and that will be enough.
