Celtic manager has done pretty well considering how ridiculed his appointment was at the time

The 3 Japanese players he's brought in look great too

This Kent kid from Rangers looks lively and useful. 

 

He's half the player he was last season. Like most of them tbh. Think they miss a trick not cashing in on him, Morelos, Kamara.

Interesting other game. USA vs Honduras in World Cup Qualifying. The game is being played 6 blocks from my house. I would have LOVED to go to the game. Easily could walk down there in 10 minutes. The issue? It's -24c wind chill right now.

 

It's cold, I mean REAL cold and the wind is blowing. I got back from an errand freezing my ass off. Crowd looks real brave but they are also nuts. I gotta stay in my basement office with a few Pale Ales watching the game.

 

Go USA!

 

(England is always my second team when watching the world cup so I love you guys).

Two Honduras players had to be treated for hypothermia. :(

 

Stupid decision playing this game in Minneapolis in February. Could’ve played a cold weather game somewhere that wasn’t THAT fucking cold.

Dude, I am within a mile of the stadium, it is Siberia level of cold. It gets much colder up here but for a football match I have no idea why they would do it. Not shocked only Honduran players have hypothermia. That had to be real harsh.

One correction, it was NOT played in Minneapolis. Google what city where the stadium is.

Should’ve played it out here. A few degrees warmer but at least there would’ve been another Denver snow game. :lol:

Y’all have insane St. Paul pride. :lol:

 

 

I do but let's be accurate. It was not in Minneapolis. That is a fact.  I wish I would have been there but it was like the north pole tonight.

You did catch on though cubarichho.

Mexico win is good. Canada should only need a draw to go through given goal difference. Grabbing a draw in Costa Rica and coming home to qualify on Canadian soil would be pretty special! So close.

 

That was the definition of win ugly though. Terrible, abysmal, game. One of the most bizarre goals you will see but another fantastic finish from David and save when it mattered by Borjan. The players have traveled alot of miles this window and gone from one weather extreme to the next, maybe they earned their luck tonight!

Rangers losing their way and Villa’s upturn probably enough proof to suggest Gerrard has something about him.

Let’s see how Villa are in 12-18 months time. Be interested to see if has the tactical knowledge to overcome a tough time when the honeymoon period is over.

He has surrounded himself with decent coaches who seem to be tactically switched on!

Early days would say there's some truth there, Rangers looked shocking yesterday. They were top of the table before the match, so could have been an off day, buckled under that atmosphere.

I would be very surprised if Gerrard won trophies at Villa, but he's sure to make a fist of getting them to compete regularly for Europa League spots

 

Think he's got more about him than Lampard, Terry, some of his other contemporary's, but that's not saying much.

It’s so difficult for any club other than the usual suspects to actually win a trophy these days, Leicester have bucked the trend with winning the Title and lately the FA Cup, but the 3 trophies up for grabs usually go to the so-called top-four. If he can get them competing in the top 6 places and qualify for European football he will have done extremely well, a Cup as sad it it may read, would be a bonus you feel for him and Villa and the rest of the League in the current climate where it’s often shared between a select few.

Canada just shithoused its way to another win. :lol: 

 

David had a nice goal at the death, but try to watch our first goal. More ridiculous than Champo Diame.

 

Just saw the first goal, amazing :lol:
