Alzheimers, such a horribly cruel disease.

Took Dzeko all of 34 minutes to score in his debut for Inter last night, in a friendly against Dynamo Kyiv but still

Gerd Müller

For me it's simply down to Not being German and not having a team in the Bundesliga that I really root for (Had a soft spot for Wolfsburg since they has Wolfgang Wolf as manager, it's just too perfect) PSG & City owned by horrid backwards sh*thole countries. Real & Barca being simply worse than Bayern in every way, especially Barca and their moronic Swedish fans. Man U, Arsenal, Liverpool I have disliked since I was a kid for Aston Villa reasons. Chelsea I honestly don't care about, for some reason I don't mind them as much. Juve are in many ways vile, but again I don't really dislike them. Used to hate Milan in the late 80's early 90's even thou van Basten is one of my all time favorite players. These days they are harmless. As for Bayern I much rather see them win than any of the above ones although I rather have Dortmund win, or even better a team I actually like. But that's not gonna happen because neither of the teams I support are any good

Struggling to keep up with how this new DCM should be. For a year or so he was supposed to be a tall menacing old fashioned anchorman type, then Italy wins the Euro's and suddenly what we need is mobility, intelligence, passing and playmaker qualities. And then we lose 1 game and we should put a CB with only the odd game 5 years ago in that position as our DCM? And somehow all of this is still the exact type of player we have been hearing about all along. Don't get me wrong I'd love for us to have a player like that but that's basically a £70m or more player we are talking about here.

One that I've wanted us to sign for years. Sevilla got him for something like £4.5m due to Bremen getting relegated.

Hope he ends up there. For me they are the least unlikeable of the behemoth clubs. Do doubt that they will be willing to offer the salary that Raiola will demand. Man U might thou.

Sarr pretty much had a free run on the flank against Targett due to him having a mare and not getting enough help. We addressed that by subbing him and moving Young there at HT. Damage was already done by that point thou and we didn't look good for any sustained spell during the game but all 3 subs improved us. Nakamaba & McGinn is always going to be a very limited pairing in possession and when Nakamba also has a poor game defensively they pretty much offer nothing. Nakamba is not good enough to start games and this means we don't really have the players to play with a 4-2-3-1 system. Think our issues and the reasons behind them has been extensively covered on here thou so not sure we need another round of it. Onward and upwards

Really would not want to live in a China supported Taliban ran country

Taliban's have already surrounded Kabul and blocked all the ways out of the city apart from the airport. Fighting in the outskirts but the government are going Baghdad Bob, probably to try and avoid panic. Not a fun place to be atm.

£70m or something like that next summer. Raiola will make him the first £1000000/week player next year. (Messi's creative contracts at Barca & PSG not included) Get why they don't want to deal with Raiola but still think Real and City should have him as top targets ahead of M'bappé or Kane.

Any news if he was carrying an injury? Fair enough that he lacked match fitness and got tired, but he was so slow. Sarr is obviously really fast but Targett looked slow against everyone including his teammates. The whole team played a horrible game yesterday but most of the issues we had were expected. Did not expect Targett to be this bad thou.

Since he (Aguero) is out injured until November I wonder if they'll just not bother registering him until after the new year? Probably not since they'll still have to pay his salary but who knows.

2 goals and 2 assists for Haaland so far with minutes to spare. Be really surprised if anyone nicked him for the golden booth this season, even Messi or Lewandowski. Would not surprise me one bit if he breaks Lewandowskis Bundesliga record from last season. If he stays injury free of course.

Haaland also off the mark in the Bundesliga 1 goal and 2 assists so far after 40 minutes.

Going just by today I think it was more in possession that our midfield let us down than when without the ball. Watford simple got the ball out wide to Sarr or Sema whenever they had the ball and we couldn't cope on the flanks. The "destroyer" would not have solved that unless he's also very good in possession. Hope we have a LW and CM lined up. All signs this summer points to us having tried to get this in so fingers crossed.

Traore had surgery during the summer, not ready to start probably.

Yup Sweet homecoming for him.

Rough start to the title defense for Lille in Ligue 1. Currently losing 0-4 at home against Nice with a few minutes left.

I'm very OK with that. This summer is as high as his valuation will ever be. Same with Nakamba, if we can shift him and bring in a improvement at CM now is the time to do so. He'll be way down the pecking order once Sanson & Luiz is back and then off to the AFCON for most of Jan-Feb.

In a two way battle with Spurs for Damsgaard according to Calciomercato and Sportswitness (whatever those last ones are) No secret I've wanted us to sign him for the last 9 months or so so I'd obviously be delighted if we managed to.
