Genuinely, the absolute lack of invention and creativity in Martinez' coaching gives every other side in this group a chance. The ageing cloggers he'll play at CB should be targeted.

I've never not looked forward to an opening WC game as much as this. Absolute fucking farce.

Absolutely gutted for him. Deserved a send off at the highest level.

It annoys me intensely that Cristiano Ronaldo is considered as 'one of the best ever' players to play football. Some outrageous comments in recent days. Most famous? Perhaps. Better than the likes of 'the' Ronaldo, Maradona? No fucking way.

Fucking hate Baddiel. Wish him nothing but destitution.

Tbf, international football these days is a right shit gig, like. You might as well give it to a Lampard or Gerrard who'll chest thump their way through most of the tournaments without having any sort detailed, long-term, tactical plan as to how they want the squad to play in future. It's hardly as though any other English manager has been able to do the same.

If had a brain cell it would die of loneliness.

Graeme Souness is almost 70 years old. Destroyer of our once great side he was, he looks pretty good.

Howe: play them off the park Bruce: times runs around the park

Howe: Chris Evans Bruce: Steve Evans

Typical Manure that their most exciting player this season was a free youth team prospect

Howe: rest and recuperation Big Steve: pizza and PlayStation

Fuck me

Howe: Treatment and rehab Steve: Donor kebab

Some crackers here like

Howe: 'Yes we can' Steve: Pebble dashes pan

Can see Poch heading to West Ham. I reckon the other lot will let Fat Wank take them down.

I wrote him off completely after the shitshow coaching he received under the big Steve, but christ he's become a player again. Kudos to the lad and long may it last.

Guedes has never looked like anything other than a competition winner when I've seen him this season.

Loved the point at which the ball came over his head and he played a perfect cross with the outside of his left boot rather than use his right
