I'll guess without looking, you either have United or Liverpool in your next 3 games.

 

Getting momentum going with these constant international interruptions is very difficult. Then put a vicar in charge of the England team just to ramp up the excitement, whoopee dooo! It wasn't just illness that stopped me from looking at the recent Hungarian dances.

 

RCL likes your style

 

Why yes, we do

 

Media ashamed. Not on this planet

 

I took a punt on these two without thinking that Son had been away on international duty, is it too late for the Euromillions

 

So has Gil...

 

A Winks-Hojbjerg-Skipp midfield with Dele playing LW then…
Ohhhh the joys.

 

Bang average player but committed.
Bang average manager but committed.
He’s done as well as anyone could there under Ashley, but doesn’t have the ability to compete at the level the rich owners will want to compete at in the very near future.
But he deserves some respect.

 

Nah ...
Will be Winks, Ndombele, Dele and Clarke in midfield

 

Harsh.

 

But fair.
He’s made the most of what he’s got - but more perspiration than inspiration. That isn’t the profile the new owners want.

 

They'll try to give in a really big name as a statement.
Whatever anyone thinks of Steve Bruce, he's certainly not glamorous.
The only person in Hollywood that he resembles is Mrs Doubtfire, as the chant suggested.

 

Would be surprised to see Pochettino end up there tbh

 

Oh, you’re right, me dear, of course you are.

 

They were losing at HT but they're winning now. Again. 86th minute penalty...

 

I think he’d do wonders at Newcastle. He’s great at building a team but I’m not so sure he’s so good at managing established players. What he’d do at Newcastle with a **** ton of money to buy young, malleable players and turn them into stars would be worth watching.

 

Given how Saudis tend to want instant success, they'd probably hand him a list of players including Messi, Ronaldo, Maradona and Cruyff and tell him to get on with it

...and in case the last bit went over anyone's head, for WWE's first Saudi Blood Money show, Mohammed bin Salman handed them a list of wrestlers he wanted to see which included The Ultimate Warrior and Yokozuna - which was a little problematic as both of them had been dead for several years, in Yoko's case the best part of twenty years

But on the plus side, Tony Blair can now say he was in the stands watching Malcolm MacDonald play and not be questioned about it...
