Super Duper Branko Strupar

Competing with Tripps for LB.

Yep, never mentioned a number. Just confusion as to whether the s was plural or missing an apostrophe.

Get in the Septic Peg reference.

Real men run red lights.

Mental schedule for players, like. I agree its ridiculous there arent more voices in public making a point of it. Theyve lost a month rest, they'll not long after that be back for pre season, and then PL until everyone's off to play in Qatar, then back to finish the PL. As long as we can feed those subscription services though, eh.

Is that blog still a thing? Christ.

Who they play up front last season? Watmore and the lad from Sporting? He'd probably be a starter in their current setup, no? Didnt realise Sammy was there n'all.

Think that's a good acquisition for Norwich personally. Cant knock his commitment here at all. Good luck to him, hope he gets back up at first time of asking.

Think he's just annoyed he spilled his cheysey chips all owa his sewpa dewpa compewta.

His name is Paul, not Beth.

Stop pauling my leg

Yeah, exactly All the numerous foreign players we have been linked with that have been just as speculative have been completely ignored It's Fanny. You know this is how it goes.

Could go down the "Doo Doo Doo" route.

If the limit of Gareth Bale's immediate desires is to get in a Championship side to be able to make the WC in 6 months time then I cannot understand anyone thinking he has the ability anymore to do it in the PL. He might be able to turn it on every now and then but he's telling you himself you cant rely on him and he has little to no desire to convince you he can. If that's what he wants to do then that's what he wants to do, but it says so much imo. He could also have made some kind of move like this himself before now, could have easily cancelled his contract by consent, taken a wage drop and played elsewhere. But now he's left it to this stage and one of his ideas is fucking Cardiff City? Pfft, that's bleak Gareth. Absolutely bleak.

Sounds like Cardiff City if Wales get in to the WC or genuine chance of retiring if Ukraine win. He's done, man.

Someone's enjoyed one too may Pimms by the maypole.

Pile of shit, IP.

The whole change in ethos with the England set up by getting him in and treating the national team as a much more long term project with an importance on continuity and repeatability has turned us in to a different proposition. The days of cobbling the England 11 together when games come around with whatever manager is seen as the hottest prospect at the time returned awful results for years. Löw's sides were never particularly amazing but Germany were able to regularly compete by having their very good players walk in to a set up and a philosophy that was clear and well managed beyond the side that plays whatever game it is. France, despite not being a huge footballing nation, also have a better long term national setup than we've had too. Southgate may be uninspiring, but of all the other options available atm I still think him in that setup is currently the best

1-1. Germany decide to put some effort in.

Italy 1-0. 1st half was awful but Italy been better than Germany since HT.

How the fuck did he miss that?

What does this mean? Sorry, not really getting your point. Giggs is one player and person, he isn't representative of all players based performances and age. Howay...

Hlozek is like a name from CM 01/02 legendary cheap foreign signings. Hlozek and Tsigalko up front.

Feel a bit cheated I havent been able to watch Mata play out his career somewhere.
