Is it mad for London, Kentucky?

Vik was unusually resilient and you’re asking two different players to repeat the trick - it’s definitely not ideal.

Well we’d only need one of our three strikers to get injured, and then you’re making it very hard to play 90 minutes every week with two up front. Assuming that playing with two strikers is our best formation, that’s a problem. And if playing with one striker turns out to be our best formation...

Well it’s a waste if we have to spend time and energy working on a different system just because we don’t have a fourth striker capable of slotting into the system we’ve spent all summer (and >£10 million in new forwards) on shifting to. Even without injuries, it’s asking a lot to rebuild the...

I’d argue those values haven’t endured here because they’re Christian, they’ve endured because they’re conducive to the Western capitalist system that has made us a prosperous country. There’s very little difference between our values and those of our explicitly secular neighbours. As for the...

Our depth up front seems like the biggest problem. I doubt we can maintain a two-striker system with Wright, Simms, Godden and Tavares, considering the injury records of the latter two. We seem to be inviting a change to a lone striker formation, which seems a waste when you’ve invested so much...

Yeah, it’s just constant sesh in the UAE

I think the reasons behind that are a bit more complicated than schoolkids not getting enough lessons in patriotism! But I do agree it’s a problem. Good article I just read on it all here: Germany: How patriotic should the country be? – DW – 06/04/2023

How has it harmed Germany?

Is that what the German curriculum teaches?

What was her response?

I’ve also noticed that none of the Inside Training videos ever take place at night. Given the players don’t seem to be posting on social media between the hours of 11pm and 8am either, I can only assume they’re asleep - almost half of the day when they’re literally doing nothing. Robins must be...

First season is fantastic. Working through S2 now and it still has its moments, though not quite as good. Jean Smart is just great in everything.

Pretty clearly, yes

You do get to see Luton though

Few things better than a big away end silenced by us scoring and winning though! I agree with the general principle that big away followings tend to make for better atmospheres inside the ground

I don’t think we need a taxonomy of genocides in the curriculum, but we can certainly do more to teach our kids a more clear-eyed picture of how Britain ran its empire. Not in the interests of self-flagellation or virtue signalling or whatever, but in giving them a better understanding of why...

Personally I would find it odd for Southgate to drop a player who’s never let him down for a player who literally walked out on the team during a World Cup campaign.

So dynamic that he drops out of the squad whenever you pick him! (But I agree, he is definitely in the conversation)

He doesn’t pick Grealish because there’s a wealth of talented players in the same position who are ahead of him. If you drop Maguire, who are the five CBs you’re picking instead?
