RossSOne has to wonder how much <a href="https://mas.to/tags/ENG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ENG</a> paid the officials to throw the match.

Henry Winter 🤖Marcus Rashford had to leave Manchester United. He also had to leave the country where criticism of his drifting career was becoming so fierce, although social media censure knows no boundaries (in every sense). Another loan but it’s Barcelona, what a club to go to (if/when move confirmed), Spanish champions, Champions League, brimming with talent, great stadium re-opening, and El Clasico v Trent on Oct 26 at the Bernabeu. Barcelona. Mes que un club. And more than a chance for Rashford. Now down to him to show Barcelona he’s worth buying with a season of sustained focus and excellence. Strong competition with Raphinha, outstanding last season. Rashford is lucky to get this incredible opportunity to re-boot his career, to change the negative narrative around him and get to the World Cup, his third. Flick, like Tuchel, clearly rates him. Rashford, like all players, responds most to supportive management and a system that suits his (wide attacking) strengths. Amorim wanted Rashford out. Fair enough, a good new manager has to get his way. Rashford didn’t suit Amorim’s 3-4-2-1 tactics plus the wages plus questions over his attitude. Had to leave but it’s sad in a way. Home-grown, boyhood supporter (and says he always will be), good record at United, 138 goals in 426 appearances, 15th on club’s all-time scoring list. Plus those 17 goals in 62 internationals. Rashford needs to enjoy his football again and, tactically, play higher up the pitch. Needs to unleash that pace and trickery again as he did before injury on loan at Villa where Emery was bringing the best out of him (4 goals, 6 assists in 17 games) and fans’ and team-mates’ support clearly reinvigorated him. Now he heads to Barcelona where there is intense scrutiny as well as intense support. Down to Rashford now. Good luck to him. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/MUFC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MUFC</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Barca" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Barca</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/ENG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ENG</a>

Henry Winter 🤖My understanding is that Marcus Rashford has not asked to leave Manchester United. But he accepts he’s not part of Ruben Amorim’s plans and that he has to leave to get playing again and fulfil his ambition of going to the 2026 World Cup with England.

Henry Winter 🤖Glowing praise from UEFA technical observers for Lee Carsley’s game management of <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/U21EURO" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#U21EURO</a> final. “We saw in Carsley a coach who is used to handling stressful situations and important games with calmness and the ability to make the right decisions. When you can do this as a coach, your players will feel it and benefit from that and the final was a good example as Carsley's body language on the side and his clever decisions with his tactics and substitutions set up England to win the game,” said Uefa technical observer, ex Swedish player and coach Hakan Ericson. Hailed “good players following a smart game-plan”. Uefa praised <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/ENG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ENG</a> “ability to play through Germany's press – and to do it in different ways”, through the centre, out wide and through longer passes over the press. Also praised Carsley’s effective use of subs, especially noting the combination of Brooke Norton-Cuffy, Tyler Morton and Jonathan Rowe for the winner. 🦁🦁🦁🏆

Henry Winter 🤖Harvey Elliott thanked team-mates for his winning Player of the Tournament. “Quite frankly, if it wasn't for the lads to allow me to go and express myself, and them not getting annoyed if I lose the ball or try something silly, it wouldn't be possible. Although I've won it, I want to share it with everyone.”And on leading goalscorer Nick Woltemade. “Nick is an incredible player. He's been really good this tournament. For him to get the top goalscorer, I'm so happy for him. From the conversations we had, he's a really nice guy. I wish him nothing but the very best. I'm sure he'll go on to succeed somewhere.

Henry Winter 🤖Just when the Germans thought they could escape Jarell Quansah, their nimble nemesis flies in on Monday to undergo his medical at Bayer Leverkusen. The centre-back, set to sign for an initial £30m from Liverpool, was an important presence as England stifled Nick Woltemade and company 3-2 in extra time to win the European Under-21 Championships in Bratislava on Saturday.    Along with Charlie Cresswell, and England’s central midfielders who dropped deep, Quansah closed down Stuttgart’s Woltemade, the competition’s leading scorer now linked with Bayern Munich. “With the way I’ve been brought up through Liverpool I’ve always been against top strikers,” Quansah said. “It’s always a tough challenge in the Premier League week in, week out. “You are always against a tough opponent and he’s a very good player. We knew we had to stop the ball getting into him and it’s a credit to the whole team, not just the lads at the back. It’s everyone, the way they worked hard and rattled around him to keep him as quiet as possible.”Quansah played every second of England’s 570 minutes in Slovakia. He needs  to fill out physically, strengthening his game further, while continuing to make those occasional runs into midfield but the raw talent is there, and will be refined further by Leverkusen, especially as he will be playing more regularly than at Liverpool. Quansah hopes it will lead to senior England recognition. Having won the European Under-19s in 2022, and now the Under-21s, Quansah targets the World Cup with England’s senior side. “Yes, for sure. There’s a lot of experience in the side with the seniors now to hopefully get one over the line. We are always looking to win the next tournament and it will be massive if it’s the World Cup.”   He was determined to impress the watching Thomas Tuchel in Bratislava. “Ultimately, I need game time and I believe in myself that I can possibly push for that. Again, the standard of England now is unbelievable. You have to be world class to get in and around it. It will be a huge privilege if I could but it’s going to be hard.”   Even though this group now splits up, the players are determined to maintain their WhatsApp group. “Oh, for sure! I’ve got friends for life, especially having achieved unbelievable things with some of them, winning the Premier League with Harvey (Elliott) and Ty (Tyler Morton). Being able to build on that and staying friends forever is always going to be key. It’s going to be emotional if any of us leave.”   Quansah also found it very emotional that his family was present in the Stadion Tehelne pole to see his latest success. “It is emotional. No one sees what they do for us and the sacrifice and dedication they put into us. My brothers, my sister, my mum and my dad, I can’t thank them enough for everything they’ve done. Being able to share moments like this and what I’ve had previously, it’s a pleasure and seeing how emotional they are.” <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/ENG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ENG</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/U21EURO" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#U21EURO</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/LFC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LFC</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Bayer04" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Bayer04</a>

Henry Winter 🤖3.7m peak on C4 for England’s win over Germany <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/U21EURO" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#U21EURO</a> - the highest peak of any programme shown on TV on Saturday. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/ENG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ENG</a>

Henry Winter 🤖“It’s the start of a new wave.” Jonathan Rowe believes that England’s back-to-back European Under-21 titles signals a period of dominance. Even though England were missing nine players, Lee Carsley’s squad grew into the tournament in Slovakia, and then beat Spain, the Netherlands and Germany to retain their title. “We have so much talent in England so it’s only right that we utilise it to its full potential. With the right head coach, right staff, right mindset, the right people, you can accomplish anything.”England needed their resilience as well as Rowe’s winning goal in their 3-2 extra-time win over Germany. “Grit, perseverance, determination… you name it. A self-belief, a belief in the team, and that trust in each other to get the job done. We all dug deep, stuck in and achieved what we came here to achieve. Everyone’s special in their own way. Everyone has unique talents. Everyone has amazing ability.”And everyone wants a senior call. “Of course! of course!” Like all of Carsley’s players, the Marseille attacker was delighted when Thomas Tuchel came into the dressing room to congratulate the champions. “We knew he was going to be here and we had to perform, show him that we’re here, we’re ready, and we look forward to working with him in the future.”Rowe was keen to praise the qualities of Carsley and his assistant Ashley Cole. “It’s more the mental side, how they make us feel as players, the self-belief they give us to go out and perform and express ourselves. Listen, to make it as a professional is difficult. It’s all been about mindset for me, creating a resilient mindset and that whatever life throws at you just keep going.“We are all capable of doing a lot of amazing things but to perform consistently and do it time and time again that’s the difficult part. If we have the right mindset and the right self-belief in ourselves and the people around us we’ll create a good team and we’ll show that we’re unstoppable.” <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/ENG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ENG</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/U21EURO" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#U21EURO</a>
