    That kid who took a ceremonial kickoff for Marseilles and decided to dribble down the pitch and score has played more minutes this season than Delph has in the past three years.

    Isn't that just because Delph's disappeared into the vault of homegrown players that City collects?
    I think that one of the Wright-Philips is still in there, somewhere.

    England manager Gareth Southgate says some players in the squad "do not deserve to be there".

    So why the **** did you pick them then???

    Dele Alli has been given a one game ban for :emoticon-0173-middl at Kyle Walker.
    Couldn't have made it two, no?

    The PL wanted that total running concurrently for
    domestic games, but the FA had to weigh up the
    prospect that they may not have Alli to dig them
    out of more England dirges. Or worse, that Kane
    might suddenly develop a severe case of
    Fergie-internationalitus that lasts as long as the ban.

    Just in time for the international break we learn that Gareth Bale has a calf injury.

    Try to feign surprise when he starts against us in a few weeks.

    Didn't Vardy withdraw "injured" before he played for Leicester in the last match?

    Koscielny has pulled out of the France squad with an injury, although given his track record that might actually be legitimate...

    Phil Jones and Fabian Delph are doubts for England's World Cup qualifier against Slovenia.

    I bet Delph is exhausted after playing more games in the past 3 weeks than he has in the past 3 years.

    The only good thing about International Break? The poor PL fans get to stay home and save money!

    Good for him, but he's only just back from injury.
    There should be some sort of rule about Manchester clubs pulling out their internationals.
    Replace them yourselves or lose a Premier League point per player. <ok>
