Kovacic has 4 CLs in last 6 years. Not bad for a player that you would ever say has nailed down a starting place at either club
Vitinho played who is at wolves. Looks a tidy player. Romario Baro looks good in midfield. Big tall presence but with nice footwork and passing ability.
Just reading back through this (good read btw) and my dislike of Chelsea and City is well known.. Chelsea because I lived in Fulham pre and post Romans money. So had to live through that **** thankfully I had a few cl wins to fight back with post roman. City its just the money because as someone else has said both clubs have have unprecedented amounts of money from outside the game pumped into them which has resulted in them both contesting footballs biggest prize at club level and for me that huge seemingly endless flow of free money cheapens everything they do. 400m the chavs have spent since we last won it. Jus sayin
It's ok real gave them that for hazard apparently. Ignore the fact they bought kovacic and pulisic as well.
Bench medals are no medals. Ask any sunday league player what they think of the 5 which turn up in final week before a cup final to sit on bench.
So strong rumours that 7 to be left out are Ramsdale White Godfrey TAA Ward-Prowse Saka Watkins Agree with 6 of those, think they are the obvious ones to leave out. Been enough said about TAA, mental to leave him out given he’s one of the most talented young players in world football but hey ho, Gareth doesn’t want his full backs going past the half way line as he can’t create goals from open play and just relies on set pieces.
its rather obvious list. Ramsdale is literally there just to cover a disaster. White is there for no real reason. Godrey was WTF Ward prowse is silly. They are going with a guy with a dislocated shoulder saka is unfortunate but his form has been poor watkins has a chance in the future but theres too many in fornt of him plaus as usual the guy who doesn't play for a big club gets shafted for greenwood TAA would be a stupid stupid decision. I hope he doesn't go. I am sick henderson is going. Its good for us that he doesn't go and we get a full preseason in. We have to remember that southgate is bringing a guy who can't cross it and it's a very good defender in trippier. Why? cos he could play LB even though the guy has 2 lwbs as well. James as a RCB, yeah right. lol. the truth is he is bringing the big brutes who he thinks will work.
I really dislike Leicester lol As they have totally got away with cheating and everyone just lets them off cause it’s a fairytale innit lmao
leicester on their stadium? that is a tale of woe but it long precedes FFP and it is a deal where the current owners had to buy the gorund off the peopel who got it as part of the deal to save the football club. Leicester clearly beached FFP and paid a settlement on it to the football league. They effectively bought promotion and then survived by the skin of their teeth and then won the premier league. the breach was player wages.
Everyone loves a fairytale until it's Liverpool playing outstanding football, crushing 'the best team the PL has ever seen' and winning the league after 30 years of trying ....... that makes 7th position on the best PL league win ever ...... according to the BBC
If TAA and Henderson don’t go on that plane, we won’t have any of our players playing for England. I don’t think that’s happened in a long while (I’m sure someone will correct me). Probably just reflective of how few of our top current team are English.
Reece James is strong, defensive, had a decent season but ending on the highest of highs. I can see Southgate taking him, he should probably start imo. Trent, if he goes will be used from the bench
