I think they'll cash in on Solanke in the summer 

I don't think anyone will want him. He's done okay this season but that could easily be a once off. He hasn't shown over the course of his career that he's worthy of a big move. 

Hope it goes well for all involved.

Yeah. Though it’s not simply just him. Their whole set up is deeply protective and supportive of Israel and has been for a very long time. 

Political donations/support from the Jewish lobby are hugely important.

He’s wasted as a winger and his primary strength, carrying the ball through challenges, is hardly ever on display. 

I've said it for ages, he doesn't have the pace to be a winger. He isn't fast enough to scare full backs. His best position is central but he never gets to play there.

Is there a better young striker in the league?

He's 18 months younger than Cole Palmer.

Evan Ferguson maybe?

I thought he was poor enough tonight but more because pep has made him afraid to shoot or take anyone on. 

That lad Phil Foden is pretty good.

Seeing Luton being bludgeoned by Arsenal is painful to watch.

Not as painful as seeing us get figuratively bludgeoned by man city.

Its not but the fans womt accept anybody that doesnt get the club........whatever that means

It means the same as when west ham fans talk about the west ham way. i.e. nothing.

I'm trying to think who else they might go for, they may actually end up with Gerrard until Alonso decides to move on.  I'd love it.

It is not a requirement to have played for them to be their manager.

Worst run of form in 67 years, Dychey doing a fine job

rumours now he will be sacked if they lose to Burnley on the weekend

If they do sack him who comes in? Big ask to take over with so few games left. 

Everton have a whiff of Sunderland 'til I die about them. A car crash in slow motion. 

Zouma the first player to score with his spine.

3 British aid workers now confirmed killed. Will the US and UK go from supporting Isreal, to suggesting the cooling off on the murders to attacking them (verbally initially)?

More chance of Villa winning the league.

Just watched The Truth vs Alex Jones.

Never really paid too much attention to Alex Jones due to the fact he's obviously a giant cock. This documentary just confirms it even further. Despicable bloke. 

What's bizarre is the vast number of stupid people who believe what he says. It's crazy in this day and age.

I've only recently started playing computer games again and mainly EAFC, I just find it so hard to deal with the same move every time, they run to the byline, cut inside, pass it and it's impossible to stop the player from shooting, with it almost inevitable it goes in with the top strikers.  I'm OK playing against people who seem to make it like a football match and try different moves but some people just do the same thing over and over again and it becomes pointless.

This was a persistent problem in FIFA games from my memory. People find the loophole/flaw in the gameplay that breaks the game. 

Why are they calling Oscar bobb, "bobb" instead of "sponge"? Obvious nickname alert.

All seems reasonable, especially the above. 

The last thing humans need is another legal drug IMO. Especially with the strength of modern cannabis plants. We've enough problems with alcohol. Although I expect cannabis will become legalised across Europe very soon.

That’s just the regular draft that happens twice a year, and those conscripts can’t legally be deployed to Ukraine (which Russia has stuck to so far during the war).

Eastern Ukraine is legally part of Russia according to Russian law remember...

James Bree sent off!

Ipswich won it at the death. If they get promoted they will be next season's Luton town.

Most people say music, unless trying to convince themself that they're still young at heart, but listen to the same old crap and aren't hip to the real new stuff

It's been proven that you mostly stop liking new music around the age of 25. Whatever you like by then is what you'll like forever.
