David Beckham's comments made me chuckle at the time - after Brooklyn was born - to paraphrase:

"Me and Victoria haven't decided what religion to have him christened in yet... "

Timeless <laugh>
Back to my original point though, I just find it odd people are looking at someones religion as a player. If I'm looking up a player as I often do, I look to see how old are they, what position do they play, how tall are they, what's their current club and what's their previous clubs. Not sure knowing what someones religion is has to do with anything, other than being considerate to any needs based around it. I would like to think every player is judged on ability not on the colour of their skin or their religion.

I agree ...

Thoughts and prayers with Harry Maguire who needs England to fail to justify his summer whinging on podcasts about not being picked and his mum whinging about not getting the deposit back for the villa in Orlando.

after a good night last night, you know it's all going to go to pot against Ghana. Hopefully not though.

I didn't like Madueke when he was at Chelsea, I just think it was something about that whole team that did my nut in, so was a tad surprised Arsenal took him, but he did do better for them. He just frsutrates me sometimes, when he don't look up and I get into irritated mode with him thinking you're supposed to be a team ffs. I blame Bod.

That's the one frustration we have with him at Arsenal, that his decision making can be infuriating.

That said, he's very skilful and quick player who can skin fullbacks and open up defences.

He can also finish too, so there's a dangerous player in there

He just needs to do it a bit more consistently

Mentioned to Westie the other day, that this tournament format might suit him really well. It's doing over 38 games of a domestic season where he can be inconsistent.

Lad is only just 24 though, so he's got time to get better too

Heavy rain and thunder expected around Atlanta during the second half but think it’s one where they can close the roof. Or don’t close it and have a reason for extra ads.

Think the Czechs are value at just under Evens.
