🚨 Ollie Watkins returns to England squad for 2026 World Cup squad. 30yo Aston Villa striker up to 19 goals + 5 assists in helping #AVFC lift Europa League & qualify for Champions League. Strengthens #ENG forward options at #2026FIFAWorldCup@TheAthleticFC https://t.co/xXJtFuqlOH
@epicfail2048@M14Moore Nor did Caldwell for us. Taylor said when he joined that he wouldn’t do the same. Maybe that’s changed as we are his only hope of a job. I’m still surprised.
Absolutely delighted to see Sonny Cox retained. I’m convinced there’s a goalscorer in there. The hype at 16 probably didn’t help but it’s a low cost option that’s well worth a gamble. Let’s hope the body stays strong. It’s time to deliver. #ecfc

@DazzamacECFC Probably wasn’t helped by Wareham being as good as he was either.
His improvements off the ball this season were pleasing but he really needs to show more in the box, which I think he will
Not being involved hardly at all under Taylor has probably helped his reputation

Actually very glad Sonny Cox’s option has been triggered. Way over hated. I think he’ll do well next season - his work rate is top. Gotta value our own #ecfc
If we beat Bradford by two or more goals on Saturday we will finish with a better goal difference than we did in League One in 2010/11, when we finished 8th. #ecfc
I agree. Taylor changed the shape because he did it on Monday and it helped. I think it is a weakness in him as a coach that he can’t see how one game differs from another. In a lot of games he has his substitutions planned before a ball is kicked. #ecfc
@23ecfc@_JoshDenham Cole had actually been pretty bad up until his goal. Should have brought on Timur instead of magennis to hit them on the counter. No need to change the shape
