  1. Bearman to Haas and Sainz to join Hulkenberg next year at Sauber?
  2. Okay, Hamilton/Leclerc then..
  3. Ferrari trying to replicate the late 90's/ early 00's duo of Schumacher and Brawn with Hamilton and Newey perhaps?

    Liverpool

    He's massively underachieved in terms of silverware. He's also finished behind United 4 times since he took over despite United being an absolute basket case of a club for the majority of the past 10 years since Fergie left.
  5. If he does stay in F1, can see him going to Aston Martin. It won't change F1 in 2025 if he does leave, but with 2026 and the new regs, it may be watchable in 2026 for the first time since 2021.
  6. Newey strongly rumoured to be leaving Red Bull. I'll believe it when I see it
  7. 1 European trophy in 16 years is embarrassing considering the billions they've spent.
  8. I think they're completely f****d. What they need is a complete reset. The likes of Coleman, Young, Pickford, Doucoure, Onana, Calvert-Lewin, Dele, Gomes, Tarkowski, Keane and Gueye must be on at least 60k+ a week. But they can't afford a complete reset as they don't have the funds for it, nor do their prospective owners.
  9. Beterbiev vs Bivol officially announced for undisputed on 1st June. Then the undercard is Hearn vs Warren. Wilder vs Zhang Hrgovic vs Dubios Ford vs Ball Williams vs Sheeraz Richards vs Hutchinson The main event is the best fight in boxing and that undercard is cracking as well.
  10. Azim has certainly ducked Smith. Why get your fighter to fight for an EBU title, then drop it after your ordered to fight your first mandatory in Smith. Boxxer have form for it, think they've pulled 4 or 5 fighters out of purse bids against Matchroom fighters in the past year or so.
  11. Was incredibly bored earlier whilst on a Zoom meeting so decided to try and create the ideal calendar using current tracks and recent tracks. Came up with this list, bear in mind I was trying to try put races that are close to each other to follow one after the other. Aus Bahrain Malaysia Turkey Imola Spain Austria UK Germany Italy Belgium Singapore Japan Canada Mexico Brazil No Monaco, none of the sh*t 3 USA races, no Abu Dhabi, Saudi or Qatar and got rid of the two worst European circuits on the calendar, Hungary and Zandvoort.
  12. What's the weirdest thing anyone had happen in your current save? In mine, Mowbray won the WC with England in 2030 and then was sacked after the 2032 Euros after getting knocked out by Ireland in the 2nd round.
  13. Good race, McLaren and Ferrari finishing top 4 and Alonso getting some points, have I gone back to 2008? I think quite a few serious questions should be asked of Merc. Hamilton leaving at the end of the season, they still have got nowhere near understanding the tech regs despite being 3 years in and are at the cost cap every year and Russell having a habit of binning it when chasing it in the final laps. Don't think he's anywhere near being able to lead a team. Hopefully there's a few more Verstappen DNF's this season as it may make it worth watching.
  14. He was class, but he joined that great Milan team the summer after they beat Liverpool to win the CL and that team was getting old and starting to fall apart. Within a couple of years of joining, Cafu and Maldini had retired, Kaka had gone to Madrid, Ancelotti went to Chelsea and the likes of Dida, Inzaghi, Seedorf and Gattuso were all mid-late 30's and hadn't been replaced. He had that weird loan spell at Chelsea in that season they sacked Mourinho when they were near the bottom 3. Only made two appearances and scored one goal. And of course that goal was against us.
  15. The squad I would like to see for the Euro's is: Pickford, Ramsdale, Johnstone Walker, Alexander Arnold, Chilwell, Colwill, Konsa, Branthwaite, Stones Rice, Mainoo, Ward-Prowse, Loftus-Cheek, Maddison, Bellingham Bowen, Saka, Foden, Watkins, Kane, Solanke And then one of the likes of Palmer, Trippier, Tomori, Grealish, Elliott, Dunk to make it up to 23. But can't wait to see Maguire, Henderson and Rashford start the first game despite being utter s***e throughout the season.
  16. That was s****. But it happens. We got hammered by South Africa in the first summer of Bazball. I've seen so many series where England have played 'proper' test cricket and been hammered in the sub continent. This England team has been for the most part brilliant for the last 18 months. I wouldn't put it past them to come back strongly in the next test.
  17. Some innings from Duckett so far. A century over a run of a ball in India is very special. England of old would have tried to bat out the rest of the day and been 80-5 and heading for an innings defeat. Still got a lot to do tomorrow but I wouldn't bet against them.
  18. Wouldn't surprise me if it was two from each round to begin with for a couple of years and then one per round and before you know it, it's only the final shown on free to air.
  19. Taylor vs Catterall 2 is done for April 27th. Hopefully Catterall gets the result this time and isn't robbed again.
  20. TNT have got the FA cup rights from 2026 onwards. Seems like one game per round will be free to air and that's it.
  21. United Everton Spurs (Main reason being my old man is a Spurs fan) Sunderland Celtic Wednesday Forest AC Milan (Watching the CL growing up and that team of Kaka, Nesta, Pirlo, Maldini, Shevchenko, Cafu, Seedorf etc) Neither Neither
  22. He's been matched appallingly so far, considering Boxxer and Sky paid a fortune to sign him. He's an Olympic silver medalist and practically won everything there is to win in the amatuer ranks. Being matched with a bloke that's got a losing record in your sixth fight is embarrassing given his pedigree. Also, the showboating has to stop. Showboat when your boxing at your boxing at Euro level, fringe world level to make a name for yourself and put yourself on the world stage. But when your boxing blokes with a losing records and pirouetting and taping them on the head makes you look a complete b****end. Match him with a Pitters, Lyndon Arthur or Craig Richards and i'm sure the showboating would soon stop.
  23. According to Transfer Market, the last to do it in the league at least was Agbonlahor in 08-09. 11 goals and 10 assists. Young and Milner both got within a couple of doing it but never managed it.
  24. Didn't expect that move at all, but it's certainly interesting. Also shakes up the driver market for 2025. Red Bull: Verstappen and ? Mercedes: Russell and ? Wonder if Albon might go back to Red Bull or whether Mercedes go for him. Interesting times.
