    I'm all for defenders being included in the discussion for best player about, but VVD isn't the best defender in the world let alone the 3rd best player.

    Yeah I've seen him on there before and its almost like he is trying to be confrontational and "edgy" with his opinions, rather than actually giving his actual opinion. Spends most of the time arguing with Robbie Savage who comes across as intelligent and thoughtful when debating with him. Takes a special kind of idiot to make that happen

    I’ve had to watch it a few times , they’ve got the 5 people watching the games who seem to be the bottom of the barrell types, the guy who presents it who seems a bit of clueless cock and that really random girl who I have no idea what her actual role is , I don’t see the point of her even being on there! Class A cringe from start to finish. They try so hard to copy soccer Saturday and it’s just plain awful.

    3rd best player ATM for me is Hazzard.......exciting and brilliant.
    As for VVD.....not even the 3rd best player in the prem.

    He completely gives up any and all interest in buying the stadium and apologises unreservedly to the people of England and fans of football across the country. Just like Klopp and Liverpool with VVD.

    Watch this space. The super rich don’t give up unless the profit goes away.

    Seems a bit odd that.

    All a ruse to get the idea of selling out to the public and promoting interest from other (nfl?) parties?

    My main guess would be that he’s found out they won’t be getting a London NFL franchise so doesn’t see the point in Wembley anymore.

    While I wouldn't pick van Dijk over the likes of Neymar, it's not a crazy suggestion on league form. Liverpool is suddenly a very good defensive outfit, while still playing with a style that leaves the defense without a tonne of protection. The emergence of Gomez has made quite a difference, but VVD has been stellar.

    Of course not. Dejan Lovren is.

    This is an unusually weird edition of La Liga. Barca and Real are a combined eight league games without a win, and Alaves tops the table early.

    All the good work done by a divisive manager carries them through to win the league under a new manager?

    Or

    They have orange cheese?

    Or

    Leithter?
