In this short bonus episode, James and I chat about the final of Euro 2020, which saw Italy beat England on penalties. From an Arsenal perspective, it was hard to see Bukayo Saka miss his spot-kick, but we discuss what led to that, the game itself over 120 minutes, Gareth Southgate's decision making and more. We touch on how this might impact a 19 year old, but feel confident that this is something that he's got the character to overcome – as his bravery to take the penalty in the first place demonstrated.Love Saka.
