Rayvin

He almost certainly is one to go mind. He's behind even the first team but also Miley and Willock IMO. Granted they all offer something a bit different but still.

I was too young to appreciate how good he was I suppose - just a kid so honestly didn't understand what made a player 'good' other than that they scored goals a lot. I still remember him firmly from that era though, he's one of the first 5 players I'd think of.

He was a right back if memory serves? No chance he gets in after Trippier. Honestly same for LB, think Hall will own that in any Top XIs soon.

I just checked on youtube and there are various Man Utd fan channels glorifying it that's another few years of hatred banked for me.

Whenever I think of Rob Lee I always remember Solskjaer hacking him down when he was through on a 1v1 against Man Utd to potentially win us the game. Absolutely hated OGS for years after that.

While that's true, I still wonder if Howe's ability to develop players is what is taking high ceiling players and really making them the best versions of themselves.

Jesus.. well that's some achievement then.

Ever..?

Nolan, Lee, Tiote... I mean I appreciate he's better than all of them but I guess I'm just wondering what the nearest we've had to him is. Honestly tempted to say the same for the whole midfield in a way.

Was thinking about what @Howmanheyman was saying in the match thread about his strike comparable to Beardsley ones. Different position but like, in terms of our midfielders in the Premier League era, where do we reckon he is? Tonali or Cabaye for instance.

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/trump-tariffs-chlorinated-chicken-uk-b2726709.html Trump to the UK - If you want the tariffs gone, open the doors to chlorinated chicken. If that's a red line for him in this trade deal, we're not getting that trade deal. If Starmer signs on for that, he's done.

The positive is there's no way this shit holds up. Its built on absolute bullshit and has no basis in reality. The Senate has already moved to prevent it and while the House may side with Trump its only a matter of time surely. I notice no other countries have immediately retaliated yet so we'll see what happens I guess.

Yeah that's it right there. A complete fucking nonsense is now about to cripple the global economy. This idea that the right wing are good on economics. It is a fantasy. It is. I have not once in my life seen it to be true, but now it's like they're going out of their way to be even more incompetent.

I was just reading over the EU's detail about all of this: https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/qanda_25_541 So it sounds like Trump is claiming VAT is a tariff... even though it applies to all goods, domestic and foreign.

Nope

Although the other way of looking at it is that he went half in on them, and matched us like for like..! He's claiming they're at 40% on the US so he's hit them with 20%. We're at 10% so got hit with 10%. Presumably if we were in the EU, we'd be running at 40% on the US. Idk if that's true tbh but we're now fully in make believe land on these numbers so I'm claiming it either way

UK hit with 10% tariffs, but he's basically lashed out at every major economy in the world. It's an attempt to push back globalisation I suppose. They also now have their anti abortion pressure groups taking root in the UK and are apparently 'monitoring' our handling of the issue. We voted to be weak. That's actually the only thing now that stops me getting angry about these things. We voted for our own enfeeblement, we have fucking no one to blame now that bigger kids are bullying us.

No words for Tonali like, the guy was absolutely worth the extra year wait.

Is that fucking weapon still trying to create some sort of a link with them ffs. It's like it's his life's work, which is honestly beyond sad even if he ever does find any sort of connection.

Did it catch anyone

We've got this.

True but I think the bigger hit is that he heavily associated himself with that campaign, plastered his name all over it, and lost. You'd have thought Musk was running himself with the visibility he had within that election.

They're pushing for Luigi to be executed too.

The problem is that I suspect that they're not going to do that properly, and instead of supporting the crafting of positive versions of masculinity and turning people's frustrations onto wealth inequality, they're likely just going to lecture them about how not to be incels.
