Santi Denia's Nations League Nomination
🇨🇿 Czechia’s Nations League squad is out — but there are plenty of questions to discuss! In this episode, I look at the most interesting talking points surrounding Santi Denia’s first squad as Czechia’s new head coach. How much pressure is Denia really under? Do Czechia stand any chance against Croatia, England and Spain? What’s happening with Patrik Schick? And which players were surprisingly left out of the squad? We also look at the expectations surrounding the team and whether the lack of pressure could actually work in Denia’s favour. A packed episode of Czech football, big questions and plenty of useful football English! ⚽🇨🇿 Video from this episode______________________________________________________________________Fantasy Premier League MINI LEAGUE: 1zu6vyCzech Fantasy MINI LEAGUE: 3WWLKUCJ______________________________________________________________________SUPPORT the FOOTGLISH PODCAST: https://herohero.co/thrivingptfzcqbttaflfTake part in this fun Listener surveyIf you like this podcast, please subscribe on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts, and share it with your friends, colleagues, or anyone who might enjoy it.Feel free to email your feedback to Zdenek: TeacherZdenek@gmail.comMore about Zdenek
