TONY ADAMS made a bold outfit choice as he cheered on England against Ireland in their final Nations League game.
The Three Lions face the Irish in Lee Carsley’s last match as interim manager before Thomas Tuchel takes the reigns.
Adams, 58, was a VIP guest at Wembley Stadium for the game and he was seen pitchside before kick-off.
His appearance was picked up by ITV cameras and viewers were stunned by his bold fashion choice.
Adams wore a mustard-coloured jacket with an England scarf poking out the top.
ITV tweeted an image of his look and called it a “bold statement”.

One fan said: “Nice of Tony Adams to come to the England match dressed as Pudsey for Children in Need.”
Another joked: “He has got my nan’s coat on.”
Arsenal legend Adams was seen talking to ex-Tottenham and England star Aaron Lennon pitchside.
And he then sat in the stands alongside another former Spurs and Three Lions player in Jermain Defoe.

Prior to the match, Adams was interviewed by the Wembley announcer and was asked about England’s 3-0 win over Greece on Thursday.
But he replied: “I’ve been in China for two weeks and I’m jet-lagged so I’m not the best-placed to say.”
Forgotten England stars could benefit from Tuchel appointment
WITH Thomas Tuchel announced as the next England manager, a few forgotten stars might be hopeful of a return to the international set up.
The former Chelsea and Bayern Munich manager usually uses a 3-4-3 formation.
That could provide an opening for Mason Mount, who’s not been involved in the England set-up since the World Cup in 2022.
The now Manchester United star enjoyed his most successful spell under Tuchel while the pair were at Stamford Bridge.
Tuchel could also offer lifelines to other previously capped players such as Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Eric Dier.
RLC has excelled since his move to AC Milan and with England struggling to find a partner for Rice, he could be the surprise answer.
Meanwhile, Dier played for Tuchel at Bayern Munich as part of a back-three last season.
The defender did enough to convince the club to make his loan move permanent after he had fallen out of favour at Tottenham.
