    I get his message. Football and the hyperbole surrounding the game. "The most important game of the season so far," "our biggest game of the season," "our toughest opponents to date,"

    I'm feeling the need to make a ballshit bingo sheet similar to the one I take to meetings at work.

    You have meetings at work. Are they good or do they just waste everyone's time? What could be communicated in 5 minutes can take 30 minutes?

    30 minutes? That's not a meeting, that's just bumping into someone in the corridor.

    Here in Mallorca you follow someon down the street in your car, they stop and have a chat to their neighbour. Then drive on a few yards and decide they have to say hi to the friend just entering the shop for another few minutes. You learn to live and adapt.

    I remember driving in Torrevieja, Costa Blanca, when the traffic came to a halt, in a one way street, with cars parked either side.
    A couple of minutes later a guy came out of the newsagents, with his paper, climbed into his car, that he had left in the middle of the road, and drove off.
    Nothing surprises me, in Spain, well the use of an indicator does.
    Used to enjoy sitting in a cafe, watching the Spanish park, using the bumpers to bump cars, to create a bit more space.
    As you say, if you spend time there, you have to adapt. In the U.K., I don't expect to wait long at a supermarket checkout. In Spain I do.

    Yes, I thought that the most appropriate title. Now to come up with some suitable phrases or sayings to use in the boxes.

    For use on Saturday:

    'I don't get the fuss about Ward-Prowse'

    'Great - that's their first shot all game and Forster just stood there'

    'For goodness sake Puel, it's like you tell them not to score. This is the worst, most boring, dire football I've seen in years, I can't believeyou're still our mana...........huh? What? Oh really? About time! I was thinking our football looked better than last year actually, makes sense now, I guess I was right all along'



    That last one will be tough to fit into just one square :)

    You are missing the most likely ones.

    Could have done with Virgil Van Dijk there.

    Selling club.

    Gareth Bale.

    Steve Davis has done nothing all game...well, apart from the 2 assists of course....and the goal. Apart from that...nothing.
