00:00 Dear England, I can't possibly hope to speak for an entire country,

00:06 but I would like to share a few things with you as we begin this journey.

00:12 England needs a new story.

00:19 I don't think the problem's out there on the pitch. I think it's here.

00:23 Pressure getting to you already, is it?

00:27 This is men dealing, or not dealing, with fear.

00:30 I don't need to invite you all into my head.

00:32 Thank you.

00:33 Gareth.

00:34 This is a story, and you are the storyteller.

00:39 This feels like a different England.

00:45 It's fearless, having fun out there.

00:47 Well, it's sort of a mental preparation.

00:49 What is all this we're hearing on the top floor?

00:52 Share your doubts, feelings.

00:54 Come on, England!

00:57 I think I heard that stuff coming from the stands before.

01:00 Should we all of us collectively say something, maybe?

01:03 You think it's that easy?

01:04 You haven't walked away from that spot.

01:11 You're still there.

01:13 I think I may have let them down.

01:15 Your clock is still ticking.

01:18 Beginning.

01:19 Middle.

01:21 End.

01:23 Dear England,

01:24 I'm sorry.

01:25 I'm sorry.

01:26 I'm sorry.

01:27 I'm sorry.

01:28 I'm sorry.
