"That's BULLSH*T!" Simon Jordan SLAMS Enzo Maresca 'Apology', England Worries vs D.R Congo & More

John Terry and Simon Jordan express significant concerns about England's defensive performance, noting sloppiness and an openness that allows chances against weaker teams. They also highlight the team's inability to break down low defensive blocks and a lack of 'clever balls' from central midfield, suggesting a creative deficit.

John Terry states, "defensively we look a little bit sloppy. We look a little bit open like we're conceding chances against average sides for me. We're unable to break a low block down as well." Simon Jordan adds, "no one seems to have a clever ball."

The panel debates Enzo Maresca's mid-season resignation from Chelsea to join Manchester City. Simon Jordan criticizes Maresca's conduct and the sincerity of his apology, suggesting it was a forced condition. John Terry and Sha Dice acknowledge the complexities of managerial roles, including internal club pressures and the quick turnover of managers.

Simon Jordan states, "Maresca, I think, behaved poorly. I think I think the worst thing that could have happened to Chelsea and Maresca was for him to world win the World Club Championship because I think automatically he went up like a peacock." Piers Morgan reads Chelsea's statement, "in light of his decision not to continue fulfilling his responsibilities through the end of the season, the club was left with no choice but to protect our players, our supporters and the badge and accept his resignation."

The panel emphasizes that the heat and altitude in some World Cup host cities, particularly in Mexico, will be a major factor in later stages of the tournament. They suggest this could disadvantage European teams and favor South American teams who are more accustomed to such conditions.

John Terry notes, "the Mexico one is going to be a bigger test. I think the altitude is going to play a massive part." Sha Dice adds, "it's the whole different ball game when it's 31 degrees, you know, and you're initia." Piers Morgan concludes, "one of these South American teams have the best chance purely for what we discussed JT a little earlier about altitude and heat as this tournament goes on."

The discussion extends to the incident involving Ben Stokes and Gus Atkinson breaking a curfew. John Terry and Sha Dice argue that grown professional athletes should have more autonomy, especially after a win, and that moments of team togetherness are vital for morale, even if they involve staying out late.

John Terry states, "team spirit and moments like that when you've had a big win or sometimes when you've had a loss as well, those little moments of togetherness can serve you so well further on." Sha Dice adds, "Grown grown men, professional people haven't got a game. They know the time scales now. They're more educated than ever."
