@Piff, if Nunez could use his hands and were the ball oblong, he’d be unstoppable. But then it wouldn’t be football anymore, it would be rugby.

Ceaseless supply of photo and video clips of men in shorts. Womens World Cup wasn’t too far back, not a single such posting. Sweaty t-shirted men (and boys) back out in skimpy shorts and the archives working overtime.

Each to their own. As Macklemore once chimed, “Same Love”. And rightly so.

Sliding doors. Had Son slipped it beyond Ortega’s big toe, it would still be football. Potentially. It’s not about the game being played, rather who’s playing it. There was no such thread after Game week 30 with Liverpool 2 clear of Beloved and 3 clear of Alibaba. All the talk was of fortitude. Fast...

Camavinga 21/22. Tchouameni 22/23. Bellingham 23/24. Kroos and Modric appear to be “still around”. The replacement began with both players still in the heart of the midfield. Mbappe 24/25 to replace? Having waited for? It is what it is and will only ever be called Football. If not mistaken, was Phil...

@Ssebo, what is the context of the clip? If not mistaken, this was in reference to VAR. Could be wrong. @Tx, the interval between the signing of Jota, Diaz, Nunez, Gakpo, if not mistaken, was 3 seasons. Regarding the Kalvin Phillips reference, could this be likened to Naby Keita, who came, failed an...

The business is booming too much to give a monkeys about the stuff being monkeyed about. Real may win their gazzilionth UCL, will add one of the best players in the world to their rafters and everyone will say, “now that’s what you call a Champion”, “na him be Igwe”.

So does it only apply to City? Did Real have to split the paella to sign Ronaldo, Bale, Bellingham? Why spend tens of millions on teenage Vinicius and Rodrygo, could they not have developed such in their academy? Camavinga, Tchoumeni, late teens, early 20s, big outlays. The Mbappe logic makes little...

@TTK, find an atlas of Europe, put a finger on the page, close the eyes and move the finger around in a few circles then stop. Eyes open. Whomever sits beneath the finger tip is more than likely a decent scrap vs Brazil. Purposely picked, Europe boasts many who will issue them a biblical flogging. S...

@Tx, trying to understand the “it’s not football anymore” argument. Would that be premised on spending power, expenditure or both? Is this a charge that sits with City alone? Why is the UCL still football despite Real Madrid, perpetual winners having smashed records to procure Zidanes, Figos, Ronald...

Gary Glitter sprinkling his stardust over the site, predictably. Oven gloves on the hands to quench the burning desire to open the archive and post a little Saka. Little being the operative word. @Scipio, it’s a 38 game campaign, our David takes his charges North. Ogbonna, Soucek, Zouma, war elephan...

38 game campaign. If not mistaken there’s only 37 on the board. City still have to finish the 3rd course. West HAM. Davey Moyes last stand in the dugout, the Hammers will want a grandstand finish. It’s far from over. As for the Admiral, honourable without doubt, but it’s 5 or 6 past Pickford, no les...

With all due respect, Tottenham played well. Lacked composure in the finish. City were well off it. De Bruyne injured, Ederson out, if they couldn’t take the points, take the players. It’s all meat and drink.

@Africanus, did you scipio the breakfast bacon and break the covenant? Triple up for the weekend. It’s not yet over.

Ederson taken out. De Bruyne injured. Walking wounded for the 3rd course? Ange has played his part. Uncle Jam Bodi Antonio, over to you.

Accumulator done for. Raith pulled it off. Spartans down at Dumbarton. Would’ve been 8 large. 150 down but not out. Over to Our David to slay Goliath.

Eat your Ham at Upton Park or Stamford bridge please

Grow up. There’s only enough room for one Danfo. Have money riding on this. Couldn’t care less for superstitions.

Atleast 8 added on. Bramley apple sauce?

Ye of little faith. FulHAM. TottenHAM. West HAM. It was written.

Enter? Absolutely. Who? Big Dave Kulusevski.

I suspect Doku will be making an appearance soon

Adama Doku is a must but doing so weakens the centre. Now the role of FulHAM becomes all the more obvious. False sense of security. Gvardiol will soon be exposed.

Slow and pedestrian from City. Surprised they didn’t go with Adama Doku as the outball vs the high line. Guardiola will have to earn it. Take out a midfielder and risk being overran. Kovacic for Doku, Silva central, Foden wide. Weakens the centre, strengthens the flanks.

Part 1. Check.

Look at the state of City. Comical. Silva, Rodri, can’t string a pass. Hilarious.

Longest City have gone in a game without since? Beloved.
