In other rapist news, Mason Greenwood has been granted bail. You know, after he was locked up for violating the terms of his bail.
Not sure United have much to be proud about in this regard. Harry Maguire is basically a living meme at this point.
To be (somewhat) fair to them, winning the Soviet league was arguably a tougher proposition than the Russian league Look at when Zenit won the Soviet league in 1984: not only did they have to overcome the Moscow teams, but Dynamo Kiev (as they were back then), Dnipro, Dinamo Tbilisi and Dinamo Minsk were among the teams they were competing with
They probably gave it to Zenit Leningrad because it was the 60th anniversary of Vlad's death. They also reached the cup final, funnily enough, losing to Dynamo Moscow, the KGB club. It would mirror the bent nature of their relegation avoidance in 1967. They finished last, but it was decided that it would be in poor taste to send them down. Why? It was the 50th anniversary of the October Revolution. Ok, then... Leicester fans currently looking for important dates in the history of their city.
I hate to defend Jurgen Klopp, but the claim that his criticism of City was xenophobic is ludicrous. It's just basic crybullying.
Goddamn Trophee des Champions, I was this close to saying the UK has had two Prime Ministers since PSG last won a trophy...
I honestly have no idea how Gerrard ins still in post...the last geezer was sacked after a better start than this
Mitrovic gets Luiz sent off, then scores a penalty. That's probably it for Liz Tru... er, I mean Gerrard. Maybe he'll run for PM on Monday?
Poch trending on Twitter, he was the last time Villa time played but today it seems a battle between Leeds and Villa fans as to who wants him more. Not sure either would overly appeal to him. Villa perhaps a little as I reckon there’s a few players who’d flourish under Poch but I still think he’d need some considerable persuasion (£££) to take that it and that’s if he’s not already in talks with any other clubs around Europe.
Gerrard has been sacked ... Pochettino the favourite to replace him ... maybe he thinks lo Celso and Lo Fatso can save their season along with Sessegnon
