FIFA's World Cup "Hydration Break" cash-grab & Bellingham vs Rogers for Croatia?

England's World Cup opener against Croatia is just a matter of hours away but it's all quiet in the England camp... calm before the storm or a very good sign for Thomas Tuchel?

Bellingham v Rogers has dominated the pre-match line-up debates but why not both?

Gabby, Mark & Nedum Onuoha also reflect on Scottish pride, an electric performance from hosts USA & how Team Australia are fighting back against anti-immigration sentiment back home.

Plus, is it really hot enough for these 'hydration breaks' or are they a FIFA cash-grab in disguise? Chappers is fed up with celebs in stadiums and Gabby manages to get in a fight with Michael Bublé - this World Cup really has it all.
