The Nessun Dorma Draft: England in the 1980s

Listen on

Episode notes

This week’s draft is a challenge: picking an XI from England internationals of the 1980s. Martyn, Gary and Rob are joined by… nobody, and that’s probably a good thing because it's hard enough finding 33 players, never mind 44.

A reminder of the rules of the Nessun Dorma draft:

1. Each player can only be picked by one person. When Bryan Robson and Gary Lineker have gone, they’ve gone.

2. Players are judged solely on their form for England in the 1980s. Greatness at club level, or for England at Italia 90, is worth bugger all.

3. You decide who wins the draft. Go to Twitter/X on Tuesday morning to choose which team you think is the best. The poll will close at 5pm on Friday (UK time).
