Pogba seems to want to play football again now Jose has left.

He's finished his tantrum now his got his own way, and now decided to turn up.

f**king toddler.

 

So JM has a penalty saved. I'm not sure, but I think that's the first time that's happened!!!

 

Very poorly taken.

 

He had one saved a couple of weeks ago in the shootout against Man City in a cup game.

 

He’s missed his last 2 pens.

When someone told me he missed in the shootout I was shocked as I can’t remember him miss one. 2 on the trot now.

 

I didn't realise that - thanks.

 

I remembered because I watched it and was critical of his attempt. With JM's accuracy, he should just smash into the upper corner.

 

How much can you remember about the EFL in 2018.
(Best attempted now, before several bottles of Prosecco )

edit - I managed 4/12 but I'm on my sixth (6) bottle of Cava

 

6/12 for me, only San Miguel consumed so far.

Bah!

 

7 for me.
Most were lucky guesses

 

9/12.

 

Smart arse

 

I got 7 by guessing lol

 

Amazing what a couple of poor results can do to the odds at the bookies. A few weeks ago, Leeds were 'odds on' for the title!!!!

Championship Title Odds:
- Leeds: 11/8
- Norwich: 4/1
- West Brom: 9/2
- Sheffield United: 6/1
- Derby: 14/1
- Middlesbrough: 20/1
- Aston Villa: 33/1

 

Looks like the player on the deck is also pretty 'keen'
Look closely at the photograph!!

 

Have you seen his scoring record? Something like 5 goals in his last 60 games!
