## Resource

In episode two of World Cup Uncensored, former England captain John Terry returns to the show alongside co-hosts Piers Morgan and Simon Jordan to discuss the 2026 World Cup so far. John discusses the England team's YouTube channel dropping a podcast with squad players Jude Bellingham and Morgan Rogers, in which the pair discuss fellow player Jordan Henderson and his importance to the team, a topic of conversation online since being called up by Thomas Tuchel. The lads go on to discuss the hydration breaks taking place in every half of every game and whether they're ruining the flow of the football match and if it's just another way for American broadcasters to capitalise on advertisement breaks. Finally, they look ahead to the England game against Croatia and the 'lack of quality' of the football played at the World Cup so far. 00:00 Introduction 01:49 Piers, Simon and John discuss hydration breaks 06:29 Should the England players sing the National Anthem? 13:01 The panel discuss who has impressed so far at the tournament 16:36 England squad leak suggests Gordon will start and Guéhi will be benched 21:34 Should Jordan Henderson have been brought to the World Cup? 28:40 John Terry discusses why the England players haven't been feeling appreciated 33:07 Piers, Simon and John discuss Scotland 36:35 John Terry: “Marc Cucurella to Real Madrid is a big loss” 38:15 Simon Jordan and Piers Morgan react to New York Knicks win 41:40 Will Zlatan Ibrahimović be a good pundit? 43:07 Simon and Piers discuss the political state of America during this World Cup 45:21 Should the BBC have gone to America for the World Cup? 47:41 Were FIFA right to ban the Somali referee Omar Artan?
