So Wayne Rooney's new child is called 'Kit'. I can only assume that's down to the number of times he has heard "Nice kit Wayne" "Get your kit Wayne" "Have you got the new kit Wayne?" "Bring your kit with you Wayne" ...without ever being 100% sure what those sentences actually mean.
Fantastic - he has slotted in to the team beautifully! It will be a shame for him should Jan automatically get recalled in place of him once he's fit again.
Agreed. I still think Jan is a slightly better option as his partnership with Toby is almost telepathic. But what a steal Big Kev was at £4m! Kudos to whoever took over our scouting and recruitment following the Bale money debacle - Dier, Wimmer, Alli, Toby - all absolute bargains.
TBF, I think Toby is such class that you could pair him with Chadli and Nacer would then have the same stats as Wimmer.
Kevin Wimmer: £4.3m. Nicolas Otamendi: £28.5m. Eliaquim Mangala: £43m (allegedly). One of those looks like a good deal, at the moment. While we're on the subject of Sky stats: please log in to view this image League place: 2nd.
Anyone familiar with the film 'Damn Yankees' where a man sells his soul to the devil to play for The Yankees? Has Poch struck a bargain con el diablo?
I think that Ranieri might have, actually! Probably just after his Greece side lost 1-0 to the Faroe Isles.
"What on earth did he do to warrant a fine like that?!" His team were caught playing football when Pulis did not have the official PL/FA permits.
"When did a Pulis team play football?" When the club he managed had the correct FA/PL permits. I understand that Palace managed to get this sorted for him one season.
