Chris Gunter starts for Wales ahead of Matthews, right?

I like how the article is about signing some kid and they just drop it in all casual about Wijnaldum

What's this Wijnaldum stuff?

Steve McClaren for turning up at the airport and saying "Howdy Partner" in the accent

Out of contract in 12 months

Got relegated didn't they?

We had WBA away on some leaked list I saw. Probably total rubbish though

Liverpool forgot they've got Origi too? Fuckers

Well Abeid has already pretty much gone, would be surprised if Tiote stayed too.

In an ideal world, absolutely. There's very few of our players I even like, let alone want to keep. But realistically we're not going to ship 10 out and bring 10 in.

Well obviously, but who is going to take them?

The International argument is fairly pointless though. If you play for a massive club you can buy the World's best players and that's obviously going to help the best players win trophies. At International level, you're kind of stuck with a certain set of players and you can't do it all yourself.

Christ. That'd be weird.

I think the main problem with Laudrup was that, by all accounts, he gave no fucks and there was no real order at Swansea by the time he left. That scenario here is basically where we've been for the past 6 months, it'd be carnage.

Depends who you can ship out as well really. We can only have 25 and we've still got the likes of Tiote and Obertan on the books, plus Darlow & Lascelles to add in. GK: Krul, Darlow, Elliot RB: Janmaat LB: Dummett, Haidara, CB: Lascelles, Williamson, Taylor, Colo CM: Tiote, Colback, Sissoko, De Jong, Anita Wings: Cabella, Gouffran, Obertan, Aarons, Sammy? Forwards: Cisse, Perez, Riviere That's 23 already and assumes Abeid is leaving. Maybe a couple less if Aarons and Lascelles qualify as being under 21 and here long enough, too lazy to check. Assuming Armstrong is one of these.

How is this funny?

Cabaye must be thrilled

Ashley likes to hold a grudge so I fully expect McClaren to have crawl through the "supplicants" door to his office

A fucking Geremi header no less. They did a lap of honour after the game I think, it was like they'd won the league. I'm still bitter about it, the cunts.

The only plus for Boro coming up is that it's less to travel for an away game. If you're wanting them to win for any other reason you've presumably forgotten what utter bellends they were in the early 2000s

To be honest I don't think he needed to "act" yesterday when there's millions of pounds on the line. That's something he actually does care about

Oh my fucking hell

1-1

They've used all their subs
