FSD listeners, let’s congratulate ourselves that we have finally made it to the latter stages of the international break; but it hasn’t been without headlines. Bernardo Silva has hit out at the football calendar for the year, which will see City play once every three days until the turn of the year. But as someone paid millions to do that job, does he still have a point? And Harry Kane approaches his 100th England cap as the Three Lions take on Finland tonight so we discuss - is he England’s greatest ever player?
