That make sense, kind of fits with what I would usually think, just have a sense that all things that glittered may not appear so golden to him now. Suppose, to some extent, and assuming he would be approached, it depends on how much he backs himself to succeed there and how it feels to be at that club.

My crystal ball, without any illusions to being ITK, says two players who went to the World Cup. A forward, who impressed, who can play anywhere across a front three and a midfielder, who didn’t feature, and wants to up his chances of featuring in future.

Not sure about that like, looks like Chelsea stint might end in tears at this rate. Get while the gettings good would be my advice.

Appropriate for a round the world footy tour!

Yep, might have seen his arse.

Penguins? black and shite, penguins?!? You’re fooling nee one ye jawdie basta!

Yep, plus nothing as commercially attractive as a super socceroo breaking into the world scene. A Bradman or Ablett, of this sport, would would do great things for the profile of the game and the interest triggered in young kids, who may be good at a range of sports. Here’s hoping Garang goes a step further/has an even better career than Tim Cahill.

Would love to be in Marrakesh for that!

1. Morocco 2. France 3. Messi 4. Croatia

I could get on board that particular rant.

I understand the disappointment, but it is ridiculous to be criticising Southgate for this loss. Hammer the ref if scapegoats are your thing.

Nobody would have picked these teams as the final four. Quite a positive for world football, I guess.

Boo to this shit. Did enough, bar the obvious, to win.

We were the better side, just about. We can win this.

‘66 ? then ‘22 ?. C’mon England!

Yep, I mean I know they have quality in depth, but can’t help thinking (1) Big Joe would have searched and destroyed through that Croatian midfield, and (2) it was a Bruno type game, especially with his mate alongside. Not complaining, couldn’t see England beating that Brazil side in a final. Could see us beating Croatia or Argentina.

? can’t remember what I was going to post. Still laughing at Karmgasm from another thread … and above.

Bloody hell! Thought we might see a critical goal from Bruno, but not that Bruno!

What a knobhead.

What’s a ‘Dale shirt’? A brand? (…or obscure American criticism ?)

Self-centred cunt.

6 fecking nil! Tut-tut… you deserve to be tumbling down the league with predictions like that ?

Your club, and its visibility, gets you to the squad (or not). It’s on him, training and game time, to secure a start. Doubt he’ll feature again, though if they bring him on in the final, when they’re trailing three nil to us, and he scores one and creates one, leading to a deafening twatter clamour for him to have been brought in sooner, we’ll… that’s ok too.

Half of that, he earns over twenty times more than most doctors.

I like it! Can we anglicise and steal? ? ooohh! our Geordie noise, our Geordie noise, our Geordie noise, our Geordie noise ? (repeat for twenty minutes)
