Nah, they won't even be in 50 years. Not while the likes of Barca and Madrid exist. Are you sure? Do top young footballers even want to play for Inter or Milan anymore? If Madrid and Barca can grow their revenues then they’ll be fine. If they can’t, then I see no reason why they won’t go the way of Milan or Inter.

Hope PSG beat them.

Get in there!

Vermaelen starting a Clasico. Barca’s transfer committee is pathetic.

Taking a lot of shots correlates to scoring a lot, but he also looked good in his first few games. The chances have dried up for him lately which isn’t a good sign.

Shearer discussing brain disease because of heading. I honestly think in 5 years we'll get bans on heading in kids matches. No heading allowed for all under 16 matches, for example. Which parent will willingly allow their children to head the ball if they're at increased risk of dementia or CTE?

They deserve it.

Everyone captaining Kane today? I hope they don’t rest him, there’s a break coming. Want a hat trick.

I am here. We create 1-2 chances, pass poorly, can’t counter attack. Burnley look dreadful as well but score a jammy goal early in the second half and hold on while we huff and puff. The kind of game that makes you wish we played our next game the day after just to get the stink off. Would rather get played off the park than lose 1-0 dreadfully. Monday night away from home, it feels familiar.

Even Barcelona, who for years opposed sponsorship on their shirts, had to accept sponsorship money to remain competitive. NUFC are no different as long as it isn’t something like Wonga Dome I haven’t got a problem[emoji857] Barca will probably give a sponsor the right to add on their name to the Nou Camp pretty soon. It is what it is at this point.

4 points from the next 2 games, however we get it, would be awesome. We’ll most likely lose at Old Trafford so 18 points from 11 matches to begin the season is where we would be, which is an excellent return.

Gayle is clearly limping.

I would have taken a point before the game, so this is all right.

Is Gayle limping around?

No need to make that tackle, what a dumbass.

Dumbass tackle.

Captained Kane. Please start scoring at home, Harry.

Thank fuck Messi went angry mode today. The World Cup would have been shit without him there.

The defender agreed. Perfect.

This worked a fucking treat. Everyone captained Lukaku and I thought 'Spurs are excellent away' so I captained Alli.

It could be the net cash outlay as the Sissoko and Wijnaldum cash will be coming in over 3-4 years. Those two were £55m together, if we only 25% of the cash then it’s only £14m. That’s a cash deficit of £41m plus incoming transfers, I could see it being close to £80m. Of course it’s just typical of the way the club and Ashley dress things up.

Yup. I’m with you here. If they went merit based for 35% of the payments, it wouldn’t be a big deal if they banned loans and buyback clauses and all that nonsense that locks in good young players to the big teams. The goal should be to create a system where there is competitiveness.

We’ll always look bad when we’re down and need a goal. The team is not set up to play like this, we don’t have good enough forwards.

Still plenty of time. We need to get back some control quickly though.

Hayden has been disappointing. Poor on the ball and seemingly always running after someone who’s gone in behind him. Not sure Shelvey will solve this but I’d like to see him play today if it’s still 0-0 with 20 minutes to go.
