    I think it’s just a case of Hojbjerg still being a good player. I don’t think he suits Ange-ball but I still maintain he’s a very good midfielder in general and also someone likely great to have around the place. Despite his drop in the pecking order, he’s come on in every game and given 100%, quite a few players both Spurs and non-Spurs could learn a thing or two from him. If Ndombele had his attitude we’d have probably sold him for £100m to Madrid by now.

    Utd tried to sign him before the window closed; would have preferred him to Mount

    I suspect that there are quite a few players that would fit that description, to be honest! <laugh>

    Bruno Fernandes has played more minutes than any other player in the top leagues recently.
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67011822

    He's rather Satanically played 6,666 minutes between 15 September 2022 and 15 September 2023.
    It's a shame that Man Utd don't have any other attacking midfielders, so that he can be rested.
    Mount, Eriksen, McTominay and Mejbri all play for other clubs, of course....

    It's quite fitting that he's used to sell beer whose selling point is it still has the dregs in it

    I see that RCL's trip to Bournemouth has affected the local team...

    The other early kick-off showed the flip side of what could've happened today.
    Sunderland are in 4th and faced sort-of local rivals Boro, who started in 18th.
    One of their midfielders got sent off in first-half injury time with the score at 0-0.
    Sound familiar? They went on to lose 4-0.

    No ****ing clue what he's done to get a 2nd yellow, though:


    Sunderland seem to get a lot of reds in the Championship for no apparent reason. Odd.

    Do not watch the footage of Basham's injury against Fulham.
    You'll have to go looking for it unless you're unlucky. It's not pretty. :emoticon-0119-puke:

    Harry Kane is a better goalkeeper than Onana.

    McTominay should be the first player on the United team sheet.

    He scored on 96 mins, 11 seconds when 6 minutes had been added on, but there had been a goal already in added time, for which additional time would also have been added.
    It seems the Brentford players may have thought it was over though from their lack of movement.

    Yeah, I was going off the BBC live thingy. They've even ****ed that up now, apparently!
    I'll check the dodgy offside later. <whistle>
