    Just heard that there was a big fight after training today between Robert Lewandowski and Kingsley Coman. Don't know the outcome!

    If this was more than the usual 'handbags' and bad blood remains the outcome is simple; Sanches back to Benfica!

    I remain dubious about Mister Anna's dedication to the FC Bayern cause however he will be very important in the coming six games which could result in a seventh successive Bundesliga title. Lewandowski's conversion record from very good chances, especially in the latter stages of the Champion's League, has always worried me. If I think back to previous recent outright strikers I do not rate him any better than most of the rest. I am comparing the Pole to Mario Manzukic, Lucca Toni, Mario Gomez and Roy Makaay who I consider 'our' best goalscorer since Giovane Elber

    Sincere apologies Kenny, it was Kingsley Coman not Renato Sanches. In fact, apologies to both you and Renato! <doh>
    Have corrected my post.

    Florence Nightingale, Marie Curie, and a host of other fine and brilliant ladies will be turning in their graves at such a daft remark?

    Sport in general just runs away with itself at times, especially the so-called noble art of Boxing, for pity's sake? <laugh>

    Could still go either way; Manchester City are wide open without Fernadinho when Spurs regain possession in midfield! If 'City' score another expect very early substitution!

    Guardiola "keep the ball give them no encouragement first 10 mins".
    Pochettino "slow it down the first 10 mins silence the crowd".
    10 mins gone 2-2.

    This is one of those matches where I side with the underdog (Spurs) and just know the other lot will nick it. Used to always work that way with wanting Germany to lose in the World Cup until last year in Russia ;) Happy days <laugh>

    Don't know what all the fuss is about with a few minutes wait for a VAR decision. Surely the main point is that the correct decision is reached.

    Christ he's given it.

    Still fancy City to get another. In play odds must be barmy
