He's an exceptional footballer who can't defend.

Tatoos? I thought it was tape?

Imagine how much better it would be if White played for England.

Really like Fabregas. Talks well.

I will watch it. Always willing to learn. In return, have a look at how fans of other countries behave world-wide. Some real dark stuff. Deal?

I always thought the answer was to allow one to go and one to sit. So a double pivot in the number 10 position. Rice has to sit. He's decent going forward but for England he needs to be the shield. Anything else and we have problems.

I don't mind the team. Tripper at left back is an issue.

Eh, whys that the most important thing? I'd put a whole raft of things above that. Also comparing drunk football fans with people trying to raise an insurrection is ridiculous.

Thank you for this post. Its nice to hear from someone who sees far darker things. Puts into perspective how things are in other parts of the world. Makes our drunken morons look rather feeble.👍

I don't know. That wasn't my point. My point was that where there are football fans, there are hooligans. In Eastern Europe there is major racism. In Italy and Spain they abuse their black players. In Turkey the stab people. In Western Europe there is a major drinking culture, which leads to fighting and hooliganism, particularly with our fans. Some, wet their lips at criticising their own country, own culture etc. Its a far left thing.

I can keep going. There's loads of examples. Give me a country and I'll find examples. Are we worse? perhaps. Are we the worst? No. @El Prontonise

As usual?

They are hated more by other English people. We love hating ourselves..

Fair enough. Whats the population difference?

Every country has shit fans, some stab, some fight, some tear the place up, some chant racist stuff. Yes we have ours.

I doubt many people are offended by WW2 chanting, I think once again we are looking at the offended on someone's behalf brigade. I dont give a fuck that Scotland sing about slaughtering the English. In fact, it's my favourite national anthem. I saw there is a new chant with Foden, Fire and Germans. By next week it will be linked to Dresden or some shit.

dirty cunt.

Graphic. Dont watch if you dont want to see someone get shot.

I think we have a handy knack of bait and switch. We are genuinely interested in Olise, but we are probably fully aware that we could get gazumped. However if we move hard and fast, it forces the rich clubs out of the shadows. It's quite a good tactic because we can move on quickly or get a serious player in quickly. I've said all along I don't think we will get Olise but I think we may end up with a "second choice" of someone equally good. For example, if we can spend 60m on Olise, we can almost certainly get Williams, Neto or maybe someone a bit different like MGW for less than that.

I was actually hoping they might use it in the ground. The pre match music needs an overhaul.

Not really the same. We snuck in on Bruno at a time where nobody was keen, he was on low wages and wasn't going to be offered mega money elsewhere. Tripps was wanting back to England and probably took a wage cut. In fact he admitted he could have stayed and got more at Madrid. Botman we were competing with a cash strapped Milan. If Chelsea and Co really want him, they can plonk 300k on the table and he's their's. Also, don't be surprised if Man City don't swoop for him. City tend to come in at the last minute. I'm not saying we couldn't get him, more that a certain series of circumstances need to occur.

That Blaydon races song, is there anywhere to listen to it for free?

I'd love Chiesa at Newcastle.

Come on Albanians. Corner.

Never felt Albanian before.
