I love Emi and will forgive him any sin but I’m not sure what grounds we would appeal on. I’m pretty sure “he was just asking for a ball back” would be laughed off Edit: obviously hope I am wrong and we can convince whatever UEFA beancounter we need to!
-
Don’t see it in his first season back after a year out - can’t see anyone putting up the cash for him and think he’ll be happy to compete for a place. What you say may come true summer of 2025 if he can’t get enough games but I still think a season easing back in slightly will have been beneficial to him. And that can include plenty of big games - look at the list Lenglet has played in, in PL and Europe.

We shouldn’t forget this, absolutely right. Amazing. Best season in how long?

You could pin this comment on 95% of player threads to be fair

If Mings next season plays the 23 games Lenglet has this season, I think that will be fine for everyone.
-
Think the Euros squads increasing to 26 means Southgate will take him.
-
UEFA just expanded the Euros squads to 26 which means Watkins or Toney might become Watkins and Toney. Gives Konsa a really good chance as well.
-
I think 4 would do it but completely get why you would want 6. Let’s compromise and get 12!

Was really expecting the last line there to be “Emi Martinez, France is his bitch”
-
I mean yes, if we “just” get into the Europa League, while also going deep in European competition, that’s a great season. I definitely agree with that. But still, let’s move this to other football in case we don’t need it eh I believe we can win the 2-3 more games needed for CL
-
Yeah this is for the best. Then he can get booked in the second leg, booked again in any pens, and still be fine for the final.
-
On a serious note I think Watkins taking (and scoring vs missing) that pen will factor into Southgate’s thinking for sure.
-
He knows we will always win on pens with him playing
-
And whatever you think of the French league, they’ll be in the CL next year - so that’s the standard of at least some of the sides we are hoping to face in it.

Yep already planning annoying my team at work by talking about everyone getting behind England’s team in the semis.

I am 100% sure every word of this Football Insider scoop is true. It is, however, not a news story, just a recital of known facts.
-
Points? I’d say 69, maybe 70 in case of a GD swing. But agree with the rest of your post. I’d also say this will have been more of a psychological blow to Spurs than us, as they sit 5th. Hope they crumble as usual

“Probably 6th” is doing a lot of work there. I’m guessing 8th behind Newcastle and Chelsea, who are above them if they win their game in hand (hopefully not their game vs us!)

I mean I personally think Man U will absolutely keep dicking around forever. Shambles of a club now.

I have said all season I think we will finish 5th, but 5th will get CL. I now think 5th will not get CL… but I think we have a good shot at 4th. So don’t listen to me basically.

Don’t think it’s weird, lots of wingers/attackers will do better coming on with fresh legs against a tired defence. Also think as more and more subs become the norm we will end up with more specialist subs/‘finishers’ for games. But yes agree for where we are now we also need him to be great from the start (and he often has been, but I agree he’s more deadly coming off the bench)
-
About which of their best performances of the season was better? Seems reasonable whether you’re the Dog and Duck FC or the Harlem Globetrotters… (note: Harlem Globetrotters probably not great at football)

To be fair the big media question that week was “are Villa title contenders?” - but only after we beat Arsenal. Before that it was “Villa have done Arsenal a huge favour!” - the opposite of today
