I might be completely making this up since I was like 10 at the time but didn't he have a massive bust up with Zola?

Bringing Gelhardt on in injury time for the only player whose looked like an actual footballer. Fucking fantastic game management. Exceptional. Get this useless cunt out of my club.

I mean I'll tell you we're shite till the cows come home. Going forward it's like watching children play most of the time, just kick it forward and everyone flock towards the ball and hope the fast kids do something useful. Defensively it's like watching some particularly stupid dogs chasing a ball around.

Probably not now but in the summer if someone offers 70-80m, they'll take it

And of course we score as I type that. Point still stands though, fucking dogshit Sunday league football Literally as soon as I hit post. Doesn't make the point less valid

I wish we'd got fucking Allardyce or Dyche. At least we might be fucking successful at playing fucking shite football. It's almost like playing under fucking Heckingbottom or Evans or Colin again. Absolute fucking shite.

They might have said that but even at the time it probably wasn't true, they were also doing far better in the league so he will have been less inclined to leave and he'd have had 18 months more on his contract when they said that. They'd probably take 50+20ish, maybe 55+25 at a push

I mean I'm sure this guy is better than Junior Firpo but at this point I'm not sure why we're paying Victor Orta, any muppet can go on Red Bull Salzburg's Wikipedia page

Yes, Jesse Marsch has the tactical nous of a gerbil. I'm surprised you thought it was even, I'm struggling to remember anything even remotely resembling a chance. On the other hand, we're so fucked when we inevitably sell Meslier for a Mars bar and a can of cherry coke.

Nah I think it's more the €5m a week tax free.

Ah good, let's wait until we're 3-0 down and then make 2 like for like substitutions. Fucking exceptional. I fucking hate this useless Jeremy Kyle cunt.

I'm not sure where this defensively solid is coming from, if Grealish was worth 10% of his transfer fee he'd have 2 if not 3. And Meslier's done well to keep Haaland out twice. If it had been 4-0, I don't think you could have complained

Koch looks stiff around the City attack but Willy is penetrating at the front

I'm just hoping that all their players are malnourished after Kalvin's eaten all their food

might as well just bend over tbh

Unless it's a close run thing, they'll know which way it's going

I expect either Stokes wins and the lionesses win TotY or Beth Mead wins and the cricket wins TotY. But more importantly it'll be a travesty if Kevin Sinfield doesn't get some recognition. If (and it doesn't) the word personality has any bearing on these awards then the man has shown it in abundance these past couple of years.

Are we using Karen Carney and Dion Dublin as the measuring stick here or something?

You can't wear dressing gowns in France?

I mean it's not that surprising that the best players are the ones who made the final. I guess the only argument for somewhere not here you could make is Livakovic for golden glove

Honestly, can we buy him from the Polish FA?

Look how happy they are

Christ on a bike

I'd be surprised if a Brighton player played in a world cup final before, apart from a brief couple of years in the 80s, they've not been in the top flight until this latest stint

A truly momentous day for farmers worldwide
