You've got the 4th favourite. I knaa, I'm just winding Froggy up

Cheers for organising btw Wullie. Got me a bit more excited for the tournament even though my odds are slim.

Leicester City just won the fucking Premier League. The Seahawks somehow made the playoffs against all odds last year. All bets are off on

What were Vardy's odds this season? This is over a shorter format too. #wait

What's new that is good "theatre" mangerially? Mourinho vs Pep is genuinely the worst. Conte is mostly meh.

Clicked on the Premiership one and immediately realised I didn't give a fuck. Clicked on the Championship one and realised a fair few teams in the division have somehow managed to wipe the floor with us before getting relegated/in Cups Wigan, Fulham, Derby, Reading, Brighton, Birmingham

Can we not fucking ban these Mags mods?

3 and 17.

Disagree with the "would have done a job in the Championship" line. Would rather we look longer term and try to build a defence that knows each other and lasts, rather than chopping and changing the heart of the defence in the transfer window on the eve of a Premiership season.

The only sensible response tbh

Aye but San Marino won't be in the knockout phases. Seriously though, he's gassed man. Definitely has no place up front (Kane and Vardy comprehensively piss all over him) and in midfield he's gassed. Doesn't track those five yards around him and his inability/unwillingness to run means he's spraying 60 yard Hollywood passes from deep with diminishing returns. He's got good technique but he's not Scholes no matter how much he wants to be.

His record going back 5 years is completely irrelevant to how shit he is now.

He's honestly so shit man.

Fleetwood Town have released 14 players, including former Newcastle striker Shola Ameobi. The 34-year-old, who started the season with Championship side Bolton, scored once in 10 appearances for the League One club.

Yeah quite optimistic about England's chances. Doesn't feel like the team's had good forwards for fucking ages. Hopefully Rooney doesn't play up top.

Last two posts have probably nailed it. You can compensate for average/poor full-backs, but not a poor manager.

Courtois RB Vermaelan Alderwield Vertonghen Dembele Nainggolan Carrasco De Bruyne Hazard Origi That's a pretty cool XI tbf. On paper, which counts for little, but still. Origi was in good nick so I'd start him ahead of Lukaku. Similarly Hazard seemed arsed tail end of last season. Not sure who they'll play at RB, but assume Alderwield will move into the centre to replace Kompany.

Yup. Sterling doesn't deserve to be there whatsoever.
