Steve Bruce was a better centre half than big Jack imho And Norman Hunter too.

? love this typo.

Steve Bruce was a better centre half than big Jack imho

We've all rightly questioned Jake Livermore being an England squad regular but he's been excellent today

Trivial point but I don't think I've seen a keeper kick it so long from the deck as Ederson. He hit one goalkick into the Spurs penalty area near the end there ?

Finalists in 84. Lost to Liverpool in the final on their own ground.

"Not during the match but......had a very strange experience at the station. On the steps down to the platform six guys who had seen my City shirt and were just a foot behind me started singing "We clap with our hands, we clap with our hands.." I thought they must be Newcastle (despite being fairly legible) but ended on "Coventry City, we clap with our hands". I noticed some Police at the bottom of the stairs just as it was intensifying and thought "mmm, Coventry City, if only there was the slightest of things I could nit pick at in that strutting stormtrooper of a well organised football club", resulting in a medley of "We are Premier league....we own our own ground.....we won the league" etc. Got down to the platform and there's a crowd of lads ahead of me, I say to them "Can you believe this, Coventry fans trying to take the piss out of us?". To my surprise they were Geordies but backed me up straight away.."Coventry? Didn't they lose 6-2 to Yeovil on Monday?" I replied loudly, "yeah and then to the local girl guides team on Wednesday" which brought applause and laughter from the platforn, police and all. The Chaventry fans went to their platform shouting something about my hair loss as 6 on 1 had become 6 on 51. Got talking to the Geordies about our clubs, a great bunch. Banter from them, a team that have just beaten us would have been expected, a comment on clappers fair enough, but from random Chaventry fans only here for a connection, when their club is a million miles away from being where we are at, a very strange and lucky for me the other lads were pro Leicester (went on to say how much they respect our achievements) or it could have ended differently! Coventry! Enjoy the clapping with hands at your consolation goals vs Yeovil (and St Agatha's under 14's)!" Canny Sounds like bollocks to me that given that Cov were playing just up the road at that very time

He was the archetypal pro's pro. I watched nigh on all of his international appearances and save for a cracking goal against Belgium in Euro 80 and infinite sideways passes and swearing at a South American ball boy live on tv in 84, nothing sticks. Oh, apart from getting sent off in the 86 World Cup for throwing the ball at the ref. RIP. Liked him as a pundit though

Fairly sure Brackley used to do impressions of football figures and other commentators too. Might be imagining that though ?

? fairly sure it was against Uruguay a few days after the John Barnes goal beat Brazil. Remember it as clear as day. As if the ball boy would understand it

For such a negative player, the goal you describe against Belgium and the goal he scored against Brighton in the Cup final were absolute crackers.

Shit. Hope he can pull through. Come on The Crab . You can do it.

The Dutch had almost a decade of being shite after losing to Argentina in 78. They seem to produce great times in cycles but cycles that take longer than most transitional periods. That 88 side is in the upper echelons of International sides I've seen yet, as Sewelly said, there were players in that side that wouldn't get anywhere near the England side they beat easily. Van Tiggelen, Van Aerle even had Hans van Breukelen in goal ffs.

Course you'll never forget that 5-1. That will be in the vaults of the old wank bank won't it? You'll be feeling Glad all over

Giorgi Kvilitaia Was just about to say this too. And Jason McDonald.

He's been pretty good in a back 3 to be fair to him.

Jamie Carolgees is bang out of order.

To be fair to Carra, he might not be spitting but could be saying words with lots of c's and k's in them.

Magnet and Steel

Ezey pezey

I didn't mind Invicta , found him funny.

What was I drinking. Can't remember a thing after someone said does this smell like Rohypnol to you?

Can’t be offside from a goal kick. Well I've learnt something there [emoji106] I've been watching football for 45 years and never knew this existed [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Offside at all?

I'm a Mitrovic fan and I'd love him to be banging them in for us but Rafa needs to defend from the front and therefore Mitrovic's lack of mobility puts him behind even Joselu who obviously isn't anywhere near as good as Mitrovic as a striker, but has more worth to how we play. Especially with our limited squad.
