Here's an interesting conundrum: in the short term it's a pain in the backside that Son will miss the first two/three weeks of the season due to the Olympics, but long term it might be a good thing - because if South Korea win a medal, that will exempt him from future military service.
 
Chelsea's defence of Eva Caneiro's claim folds in a manner similar to their capitulation as Champions and ends in the same result - Jose Mourinho's services no longer being required.

No chance Chelsea or United were going to let Mourinho give evidence. He'd end up locked up for contempt.United's manager would end up holed below the water line and it would reveal Chelsea as the scumbag organisation they are.

As the fragrant then Ms Caneiro refused £1.2m and Sex Discrimination damages are unlimited, I'm guessing £3m minimum to £5m max. That's my girl!

On what we have seen today, no one comes out of this episode with any credit.

I dunno, I think Eva's done well. It was a ridiculous situation caused by Mourinho being a fool and Chelsea being too spineless to stop him.

If I was her, I wouldn't be looking forward to facing questioning from top lawyers, especially since it was made clear from their opening statement that they were going for her character. I'd have loved for the case to continue and all of Chelsea's dirty laundry to be aired but I don't blame her for taking the deal, especially since it included Chelsea admitting culpability and apologising.

New Nike advert heavily featuring Ronaldo:

I think it's pretty decently made, but I found it interesting to see the way that the players are listed.
Kane's stock has risen so dramatically that he's now 2nd on the billing in something like this?
Speaks to both his ability and his image, which he's either managed brilliantly or just comes from who he is.
Always seems to say the right thing and his application is second to none.
 
Thought I’d answer the Guardian "Which Team are You?" questionnaire https://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/jun/09/euro-2016-quiz-which-team-are-you :

Congratulations, you are ALBANIA!
You’re happy-go-lucky, never expecting much but determined to enjoy yourself when opportunities come along. You often feel you don’t quite fit in among more well-healed companions, but you’re happy to go toe-to-toe with them and show them just what the little guy can do.


I’m an inch short of two meters.

I tried it as well. I'm Albania too. I am short though at only 1.95m, well an inch shorter than you, RWAEB. Maybe it senses we're tall and is taking the piss?

Are there any people of the shorter persuasion out there who have been deemed to be Germany, giants of the football world?
