Even then, for a period you had Carrick and Hargreaves starting together at club level. I’d have made use of that and played Lampard or Gerrard in front. Think there’s a huge benefit of using club partnerships at international level. You could suggest it was a big part of Spain’s dominance as 8...

Bit like you then.

I think you’ll find Kitching’s main issue is his fucking bowl cut. Sort your hair out, man.

I know late 90s and early 00s football gives you the horn, but a defence containing Gallas and Silvestre is…questionable.

Kind of plays into the point around messaging being incorrect from the get-go.

There’s been a fair few TV debates out the way without having to face scrutiny, hasn’t there.

Take this with the pinch of salt it’s intended to be taken with, but if we did move Sheaf on and managed to secure some of the names floated then we could potentially be looking at a very strong and deep squad…

If we can keep him as the specialist 10 in the squad and move Palmer on then I’d be keen. Shedding Palmer off the wage bill would probably see us not far off a neutral position across the two.

Not for me. He was decent but not particularly brilliant on the ball.

May have already been said (and possibly even by me!) but… Uber drivers are without doubt the most dangerous drivers on the road.

God it annoys me. Might start a petition to rename it the Registration Window.

I know! Just humour my irrationality!!

You’re reading this wrong - I’m not overly critical of Southgate. I get why he values defensive solidity above attacking flair. But (and I appreciate I’m being slightly churlish) Man City play with a single pivot and 2 attacking midfielders. We could replicate that setup and have some real fun...

Absolutely get that the successful teams at international level tend to be defensively solid, but fuck I’d love to see us properly go at a tournament.

The point of the parachute payments is to essentially protect a club who may have high earners on their wage bill and may not be able to shift. What we’re seeing more and more is clubs coming down and mortgaging against their future parachute payments to give them a warchest to get back up. The...

Literally the only time I’d even think about using him at CM would be if we were playing a counter attacking game, but even then I’d be concerned by his defensive frailty.

Have you had a lobotomy?

Tend to disagree re the Tories winning in spite of him. I think his presence attracted a lot of support from plenty who would not traditionally vote Tory because “Boris Lad”.

That is genuinely my concern. We’ve seen with both Johnson and Trump how much the cult of personality can cut through. If Farage does indeed make a play at the Tory leadership I fear we may be headed that way. As it happens I also had a look at Reform’s accounts - huge director’s loan position...
