May have just been perception at the ground, I didn’t think there was a lack of effort particularly. He was so horrendously isolated but clearly he’s been told to lay the ball off first time and I wish he had the presence of mind to realise it’s not a great idea when there’s no one within 30...

Well, what a disappointment. Need to replace 3 of the back 4 in the summer (all 4 if MvE goes) and could do with a striker. Been a little unlucky that both our LW options have spent time injured at the same time. When the opposition are setting up in a low block you have to move forward...

There’s also the speed at which the US could ramp up their domestic manufacturing with limited reliance on external raw materials. All well and good (well, it’s not, but just a turn of phrase) trying to make your domestic produce more competitive but if you don’t have capacity to support the...

I like Simms, was a big advocate of us signing him, but it’s fair to say he has underwhelmed over the course of his time here. Technically often looks nowhere near the level and seems to lack the mentality to get the best out of himself (which sounds harsh and isn’t intended as a...

For my money, the best seats in the ground to actually watch the match.

Did anyone figure out the reason why it was split across the two continents?

For their 2nd, the more baffling one was Wright being flagged offside leading to their first free kick when he was about 20 yards from the ball. Complete ignorance of the current offside laws.

Thanks to the Russian bot farm.

Had missed that due to the Birmingham draw in the cup.

I like him, but he’s definitely earmarked by opposing teams as someone whose passing is erratic.

Been sitting on this all week but didn’t want to jinx it. Can anyone tell me when the last time we did that (in the league) was?

The most penaltiest of penalties.

Even though I don’t particularly rate him, I’m somewhat glad for reasons echoed by others. Right kind of personality fit for a 2nd choice, unlikely to kick up a real stink if he’s not playing, serviceable as a Champ keeper for the odd game here and there.

Knowing their propensity for cheapness, it was probably one of those stickers with the overly sticky backs that starts peeling. Right bastard to sort if you’ve ever tried taking one off a jar!

Can’t read the article but good ol’ HMT.

Boy, your tiny little brain will explode when I tell you I work for a firm with over 10,000 UK employees and all have private health insurance. What’s more, it’s free of charge for employee.

By “small fee” I assume you mean the change they found down the kitman’s sofa?

Hope you were in a management position otherwise your company would be bankrupt.

Not really fair on the other 83 member associations. Throw all 211 in, 6 group stages then knockout rounds. Start at Easter, end at Halloween.

Thoughts on Lampard now Frostie? I know you really weren’t keen on the appointment.
