    He made a statement about his ongoing injury problems and the pain involved.
    Had to have surgery on both his hips when he was 25 or his career would be over.
    He was taking ever-increasing amounts of pain-killers and it was getting worse.

    I hope that he can take things a little easier now and start to recover.
    Sounds quite nightmarish, to be honest.

    Hugo with a point blank save in the 87th minute to keep a clean sheet and Sonny bagging an assist to kill the game off at 2-0 in the 94th minute.

    Damn, man, it’s like I’m back in 2017.

    Was it a last minute winner against a team that hate Monaco?

    "Being in pain, playing and training through discomfort became normal. For 5 years now, I've been taking pills every game to be in better condition, starting with the lowest dose and recently taking the maximum dose to be able to play. I decided to put an end to this." - Erik Lamela

    Big shame to hear that.

    And a very sensible decision. There is a fine line between the highest possible dose and lifelong addiction.

    Son, Messi, Alba, Suarez... Tim Ream.

    They also appear to have picked up off-brand Sigurdsson and Guimaraes.

    Nuno is on the verge of getting sacked for speaking ill of Lard Ass Hogan

    Get out of there, Nuno, you don't deserve to work for such a mάλακας

    The bloke that claims he's on the way out also claims that he's being replaced by Postecoglou.
    That would be... interesting.

    While he hasn't said it outright, reading between the lines Nuno seems to be inferring that Lard Ass Hogan is ignoring the players Nuno says he wants and signing whoever he thinks is best

    In other words, a Greek Todd Bollo

    Kane with a 13 minute hat-trick against Leipzig. Currently 6-0 with 12 minutes to go.

    That guarantees a few 0-0 draws will follow on the iPlayer

    Like the time Channel 4 had that pornographic match where Sampdoria were 3-1 down to Inter in the 46th minute and won 4-3 in stoppage time, only to have some deathly dull match on the next week...though to be fair, they had to know that Vicenza guaranteed a bare minimum number of kickoffs

    It's ridiculous that he was never regularly on free-kicks for us.
    Kane spamming them into the wall was bad enough, but we saw Son could do it for Korea.
