Patrick and Hayden are back for another international break, and rather than debating England squad picks, they're doing something more fun — running through the players they can't stand. From overpriced City signings to entitled Real Madrid lifers to players who've wasted every opportunity handed to them, nothing is off limits. They also find time to celebrate a few underrated favorites, bid farewell to Mo Salah, and make the case for some players you might not be watching closely enough.
