    Faes always does well with Belgium, as Souttar does with Australia... I'd prefer them with James Justin and Viktor Kristiansen... but we also have a young lad, Ben Nelson, who's a young centre-half that broke through last season and looked very good ...

    Why we've given Vestergaard a new 3 year deal is baffling - unless we are getting Kyle Walker on a free to cover for the Big lump's lack of pace <laugh>

    James justin had a ruptured achilles on the back of just returning from a year put with ACL damage ... was just beginning to look like his old self at the end of last season - so with a good pre-season - fingers crossed .

    Lot of noise about Cooper's appointment - mostly from those who know little about him - so ...

    @Chief - guessing you witnessed what he did at Swansea? I know he wouldn't have had much of a budget, but still managed to get them to the play-offs in consecutive seasons - thoughts?

    I don't get this bit mate, that refers to the Championship, but you are now in the Prem. Personally I would have given Cooper more time at Forest, and with his record as you highlighted, he's a survivor, but is that what he has been brought in for, to just keep Leicester up, if so, then yeah he's fine - I don't dislike the guy, but when Potter came knocking it got my interest as a neutral, I will still look at your results with Cooper, but maybe not quite the same expectation and zest, anything more will just be a bonus for you.

    Edit: goodluck to him I say and those commenting on his facial features, well, just like lol.

    I would also add that I think Dewsbury-Hall level is Championship.

    Most of that squad screams Championship to be honest. Justin, Perreira and Ndidi are probably the only three genuine Prem quality players I’d say, the fact two of them break down every five minutes ain’t ideal either.

    Lol... I'm just taking on the persona of a Serbia fan for the whole Cup pool. Serbia always mixes football and politics...

    Nothing serious... Although Yugoslavia should be reunited under Serbian leadership and Milosovic revered as a hero and martyr of the cause.... But I mean that from a strictly footballing perspective and not a political one.

    England unchanged.

    Who’s buzzing for some Southgate-ball?

    I need Kane to cripple half the Danish team for me with his clumsy tackles so Serbia has a chance against Denmark.

    So England win tonight, they're group champions, what could possibly go wrong.

    Just had a free £1 bet on Sky, Saka score anytime, Kane score or assist anytime, England win, 20/1.
