I really don't get it as Mendy is a superb keeper and way better than that £70m Kepa....... probably a better penalty taker too.....
Surprise surprise - FIFA bottle it... Ukraine crisis: Russia told not to compete under national flag please log in to view this image Fifa has ordered Russia to complete their upcoming matches without their flag, anthem and as the Football Union of Russia in neutral territory, following the invasion of Ukraine. Several nations have announced that they will refuse to play Russia, including England, as well as Poland, the Czech Republic and Sweden. World Cup 2022 play-offs would see Russia face Poland then either the Czech Republic or Sweden if they win - and are scheduled to be played in March. Russian President Vladimir Putin launched a military invasion of neighbouring Ukraine on Thursday. "Today's Fifa decision is totally unacceptable," said Polish football association president Cezary Kulesza. "We are not interested in participating in this game of appearances. Our stance remains intact: Polish National Team will not play with Russia, no matter what the name of the team is."
And we're surprised because????? Goes to show that Infantino or whatever his name is, is total in Putin's pocket...... Shameful
As you say Steely, they bottled it. It's up to as many of the other countries to tell FIFA they're not having it...
Having never liked Chelsea and always had a soft spot for Liverpool, todays result, combined with with world events, was a fitting result. Well done Liverpool.
Todays game is Brondby v SonderjyskE. Brondby is like the wasteland. Unlike anything else seen in Denmark. And somehow we have found the bar of local Ultras, who all wear black and have most of their heads shaved. Two hours until kick off. Could get messy.
FRom wiki..Brøndby is also renowned for its ultra fanscene. The most prominent group is Alpha. Founded in 2006, the group is placed in the centre of the Southside Stand and are the main organizers of songs, flags, banners and tifo.[47] Other prominent groups are Svinget, Deling 43 and Fri Sport. Compared to the rest of the ultra scene in Denmark, Brøndby are by far superior. Suspect this was written by one of the ultras Stan...so do not dispute it!
We’ve seen them off, all went to the ground half an hour ago. But apparently we are standing in the Southside Stand….
