Magic, cheers

Is there anywhere I can find tournament totals of goals, assists, sots etc of players so far?

Looking at it objectively it's an excellent appointment for them. They were far too poor at home last season and I think he'll have an immediate impact in home games, the only thing that could put a stick in the spokes is the egos of the Everton fans who might be against him from the off because of his connections. I know that allegation was levied at us prior to Bruce but Newcastle fans were against Bruce because he was fucking shit, nothing to do with Sunderland. But in this case they're against him purely because of his Liverpool past rather than his quality as a manager. Guess we'll see.

But, but, but Where's the FUCKING LINES????????

Nothing to do with the football but PP are giving a free £5 bet on the 2.30 at Ascot tomorrow. Just thought I'd mention it

Word

Not going to pile in on him obviously but that's a shocking mistake from Schmeichel to be brutally honest.

Another solution is to just agree on the match ending in a draw and give the players a bit of time to digest what's happened before each moving on to game 2. Don't think either set of players give the first fuck about the fixture after this.

Can't restart the game like that. Sensible decision is to play it tomorrow and knock the other fixtures back 24 hours if necessary. It looks encouraging for Eriksen which is the only thing that really matters tbh.

Home game for Russia too. Even though they're officially the away side which seems a bit daft but no matter.

Glorious news. Not having to listen to the utter cunt will be majestic.

Sky need you to put £10 on a player and give you a £3 bet for each goal. PP need you to put a tenner on and give you £1 for each shot on target. There's probably more too but those are the 2 I've gone for. Lukaku and Mbappe respectively.

Henderson is such a fucking prick. Barely kicked a ball for about 4 month and grabs the ball like he's the fucking boss. Utter cunt of a bloke.

Something about Grealish I really don't like. Not knocking his talent or ability, he's excellent on the ball, but just the way he reacts to challenges and plays the game. He's clearly not used to referees who don't know who he is not giving him free-kicks automatically. He's been used to English refs giving him just about everything despite him diving all over the shop and collapsing at will as soon as he feels contact but new refs don't realise he gets this privilege automatically and tell him to just play on. Whenever he doesn't get what he thinks he's entitled to he jumps up and snarls like fuck, I absolutely fucking hate it. Have to say he does get fouled legitimately a lot but the constant collapsing does my head in. Zaha isn't far behind either tbh. And Almiron if I'm being honest.

I'd be absolutely delighted devastated if Bruce was poached by any cunt Everton

Absolutely no axe to grind with them at all, they were brilliant in the mid 80s when I was growing up. I can still reel their XI off from over 30 years ago as an 8 year old. Honest and decent club, probably a toerag element in the fan base but we have too. Worked with a few Evertonians and they've all been sound tbh.

One of the most important life lessons you'll ever learn is knowing when to just shut the fuck up.

If Maguire doesn't make it then I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Walker and James play in the back 3 with TAA as a wing back, more advanced. The odd one out seems to be Trippier imo, just can't see how he fits in or who he gets in ahead of. We'll just have to see.

Players coming or going for this fee or that is fairly irrelevant at this point, it's just shuffling the cards around. When the season starts again the bloke playing the hand he's been dealt is a fucking idiot. We'll never make progress with him in the dugout. Quite happy to keep the squad exactly as it is and replace the gormless fuckwit and I'd be fairly confident of cracking the top half.

Encourages the away team to come out a bit and usually leads to a better spectacle as a neutral. Scrapping them means cagey as fuck games with the bus parked virtually every game. There needs to be a balance in the fixtures, away goals in the event of a tie was pretty much perfect. Why scrap it?

"No disrespect to Steve Bruce, why the hell would you want to play for Steve Bruce?" If a pundit uttered those words he'd be fucking livid, the gormless cunt. Absolutely fine to slag other teams off himself though obviously. He's such a slimey, obnoxious ignorant fuckwit, he can't help himself.

Constantly falling behind and miraculously coming back to win it is absolutely not sustainable either. They've winged it this year but they need a better manager to actually set the team up to go ahead and control the game rather than fall behind and frantically scramble it back in the second half. It can't continue to happen indefinitely.

Nothing wrong with the current one but it does look a bit dated I suppose. It's about 30 years old and probably a bit old fashioned. I'd rather keep it but if it needs to be changed then I hope they change it to that one, just as smart and looks a bit sharper imo.

He's an Arsenal player and always has been, he was never ours. He'll go back and give Arsenal a decision to make, keep or sell. Even if they choose to sell then scoring in 7 straight will have turned some heads and he'll have bigger and better offers. That's always assuming we match the fee needed to get him, chances of seeing him up here permanently are virtually nil imo.

So Man U got the team news early?? Wonder who could have leaked that
