Nice to see Saido back tracking and apologizing.

Nice in the way, I'm loving how he must be squirming.

WBA waved away a lot of massive money offers, he's not getting played, and the England Squad is to be announced in the near future. He thinks he can talk people round, get more games. If he scores, he wins over WBA fans again, Stir up more interest and puts himself in the England reckoning.

Before his sh*t, I'd have said "clever boy" but he's cocked up too much, and it's way too late. I think he could be an England striker. He just doesn't deserve it!
 
It's what's being reported everywhere, I wasn't having a go at you, I just don't understand how less than 50 % can be a takeover!
It's OK Dave - I didn't think you were. I agree that owning less than 50% can't really be considered a takeover!! <ok>
 
Marcus Rashford. 2 games, 4 goals, In Europe, and against Arsenal. Lad looks a natural.

I heard a lot about him since he was 16, a hotly tipped talent. Didn't expect quiet such an instant impact!
 
I've stopped worrying about rival results, because it really doesn't matter. Can't see us buying a win for a fair while. Other teams are bound to pick up points.
 
Well done Spurs, the young fit team worked yet again!

Watching the final. If Liverpool would have lost 1-0......that goal, my god the keeper should have had that all day everyday! Such a poor poor goal.

Saying that, Liverpool have shown fight and spirit, they have had a good go, but Man City have been solid, regimented, consistent. They could be more ahead if Sterling hadn't missed 2 sitters. The equalizer was unexpected, but, again...Sterling gave the ball away before the Liverpool goal! Weird how football works out. Sterling will probably get the winner, but it's been a mad game for him. He throws his toys out of the pram to leave Liverpool to win trophies, and the first Trophy is against Liverpool, and he seems to be cocking up a lot <laugh>

What becomes more and more apparent though, Sergio is by far the best player in this league. My god he is just incredible. Everything he does just oozes quality.
