The "Currant Bun" are speculating that Arsenal are targeting both Calvert-Lewin and Ollie.
Any raisin to think the rumours are true?

Probably not, Just clickbait like 99% of rumours.

Well , currant theory says it’s all a load of bollox and the whole thing could go pear shaped at any time.

He is a player capable of playing a high press, teams like Arsenal want to play that, so yes wouldn't be surprised if they're interested.

His off the ball attributes seem to be ignored in here, when it's actually that more than anything that has seen his rise, he fits modern football.

I think Southgate said something about picking players who weren't starting for their clubs, as they were more fresh. Which is one reason to start Abraham I guess.
Can see him coming on later, providing we get to 4 or 5 nil.

Just tuned in , England seem to be squandering chances up front. Bring on Ollie!
Don’t tell Pete but their keeper looks a bit on the short side.

Never done this before
Don't think Tammy Abraham has done much first half, except be tall.

With Foden spraying the passes and Sancho skinning the fullback, the game's crying out for Ollie's movement up front.

I fail to see anything in Abraham that suggests he's better than Ollie.

Indeed.Must say I’m getting a bit bored with this game now.Just like a training match and little end product from England. Yawn……
