Christ Disco does with words what reefaton does with images.

Always topped the table for mistakes leading directly to goals until super Simon Francis joined the Premier League. Was always amazed at how often he'd be at fault for the opposition scoring when he was supposed to be so good. Sort of player nobody's watched every week and think's good because he puts himself about on MOTD.

I would if he'd have me.

Ideal world we shift Hayden on and get someone in to challenge Diame, to avoid the risk of complacency as much as anything. Totally happy with that, but he's completely earned the right to be a starter next season based on his last 6 months of form.

Was never not done. Fucking pony.

Aye, very poor.

Dinho, just accept that it's coming home. The world's a much better place when you do that.

Btw:

NAR! You reckon!?

Fucking hell

Aye, a six month "purple patch". He's sorted his attitude out (cheers Jamaal), his fitness out (cheers random PT), he's retired from international football (cheers Mo) and he's 31 (my age). People go on like he's 34/35. Like proper old. I think we need another CM for competition (I don't think Hayden adds anything) but Diame is the last player we need to be looking to actively replace imo. He might not reach the ridiculous level he was at last season but I don't think there's anything to suggest he'll massively fall off. It wasn't like his form was based on potential luck either - he just looked really fit. I mean 31 is old for his style of play. I'm not saying he's going to completely go to shit, but there is only so much you can do with your legs. He was immense, no doubt, but it's not crazy to suggest there will be a drop off. Depends on how he's looked after himself over the summer more than anything. We'll see if he's been more Cabaye or Tiote.

Nothing. Back to FM.

I would drop Sterling back into Alli's role and stick Rashford up front, but I'm not Gareth Southgate so what do I know?

Know the guy who's set the BETDAQ sponsorship deal up and is in the pictures with the Don. Very good bloke, but BETDAQ are one of the most tinpot operations about in the betting world. Match made in heaven.

Reefa's contributions to this forum, man. Proper unsung hero. Killed me

Eh? Why wouldn't Diame be first choice?

It was indeed a foul on Kane, yes.

You were absolute fucking cunts and an American ref should never work an English match. Should be an inquest. #rattled

Mike, we beat a team who finished above you in qualifying 6-1. We effectively stopped playing at HT too, in exchange for them stopping trying to murder us. I don't know how you have the gall to knock us.

Obviously I'm biased as fuck, but we weren't the bad guys last night right?

Well of-course the US didn't even qualify, so it would be the lowest grade possible. Honestly you're 100 percent going to the Final and you won't have played a single decent game. It's absolutely fucking sickening. You're going to shitfest a World Cup and act like you were good. It'll ruin the sport. Wtf is this bullshit? Someone's broken Mike, it's sad to see.

Saturday 3pm. English as owt.
