OTF

I need to see it again, but the defender definitely stuck his leg out.

There was a foul, but it was before the tackle where they clearly got the ball. Not Gordon's fault though, we didn’t track that run through the middle.

Bloody hell. Did anyone track that run?

He has, and they know it. If they take away his passing options (or our players don't move enough for him) he's slow on the ball and can be bullied off it without a foul.

There's been at least 45 minutes of drama in the first 21 minutes.

Clear foul on Longstaff, who has been nervous. Great saves Pope.

If only it was just today. Bunch of faecophiles around here.

Also, Falcao is (was) Brazilian. Falco is (was) Austrian.

Hold on, no one is calling anyone a Fagioli here!

1. Meenzer requested it. 2. He's singing in German, so it's a German banger 3.

There's a handy flow chart for determining this. Is it the mags? ............|............ ............|............ ............|...Yes... ............|............ ...........\/........... Saudi corruption

In a way it will be funny when he gets the medal because it will be confirmation to the rest of the world that the Saudis are buying success.

But can Callum do this?

This is supposed to be me accusing you of name dropping, turns out it's much better than that. Also "bag on someone" is not Australian vernacular.

His character and associated joy and shithousery brings a new element to the side, much like BDB's fortitude, grit and desire, Sven's steely demeanour, Kieran's universally respected leadship, Joelinton's passion and aggression, Isak's icy cool.... I could go on. He's got to be a great player for the squad, you know he's not getting upset or making bad challenges in training, but rather is bringing the team more together. The fact that he's also capable of top quality finishes and passing means he can have a very real impact. He's 28 but has had a pretty easy run of games over the last few seasons in that a lot of his games are as a substitute. He has another three years to run on his contract and I can see him continuing to improve his onfield vision and decision making over this period thereby maintaining his status as a very valuable member of the squad especially when we have a busy European schedule.

I for one never doubted the lad 😉

Why he was on the bench? Or just a rest from international duty? Tough to drop Murphy now after he had a fantastic game, but then that's squad rotation.

It's better for that to be the casual rhetoric around our games, anyone poorly informed coming in expecting something different to what we bring is to our advantage. Don't expect that any teams in the Premier League could still be in that category though.

Grealish, Foden, Phillips, Bellingham, Saka, Kane, Rashford... NONE of them have won the Sela Player of the Month. Are you watching Gareth?
