    Dumb rule to make it easier for VAR. Keeps the game just about alive.

    I didn't see anything wrong with that Rashford goal, but I'm guessing I don't understand the rules or something!

    Maybe so ... but Haaland's current Prem stats put him on track to break all Prem scoring records and if he ends up in a 2 team league like Spain or, in a one team league like France, the boy us going to end up with incredible stats by the time he retires ...

    I'm sure he will, but he's already being spoken of as one of the best strikers the premier league has ever seen (courtesy of Talk Sport, who else?)

    He's played nine games.

    The stuff everyone assumes will happen, hasn't actually happened.

    Haaland s an amazing player for his age and will probably peak around 25/26. He will not still be playing at top level much beyond 32 and not playing at all at 37.

    The reason i say this is his shear power, acceleration and athleticism when stretching for goals. A man his size is putting enormous strain on his joints and i foresee him having knee, hip and back troubles by the time he hits 30. Fantastic talent and will be long remembered but not long lasting.

    I don't think I said he should get respect?

    As far as I'm aware, he's not ever been charged with anything, it's an allegation. Which happens the world over, often.

    Equally, and probably more so, men get away with it too much so I'm not sure what the actual truth is in his case.

    If he were cast iron guilty he'd have been charged and tried though, right?

    Reminds me of Drago.

    How many of us watched Rocky 4 thinking, no fcking way anyone's beating this ****.

    But then Rocky went off into the snowfields training with butcher's hooks and ****, and the rest as they say is history.

    There aren’t many Rockys about but plenty of Apollo Creeds.

    Not necessarily, money talks.

    In the September version, X answers:"I ****ed her from the side. She made herself available. She was lying on her side, in bed, and I entered her from behind. It was rough. We didn't change position. 5/7 minutes. She said that she didn't want to, but she made herself available. The whole time it was rough, I turned her onto her side, and it was fast. Maybe she got some bruises when I grabbed her. (...) She didn't want to 'give it to me,' instead she jerked me off. I don't know any more exactly what she said when she was jerking me off. But she kept saying no. 'Don't do it' -- 'I'm not like the others.' I apologized afterwards."
