I remember that game fondly against Man Utd, NRC should’ve had a better career than he did, especially after leaving us 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he claimed AC Milan were in for him. Waster. But since then we have only exceeded what we paid for him on ten occasions - not even a full team - have had to sign far too much quantity over quality across a whole decade.

These utter morons couldn’t be more disconnected with the rest of humanity if we put them on Mars. I’ve cancelled my Sky Sports subscription. I’m not sure if I’ll make it permanent, but I really should. If enough of us did, we could cut the flow off at source. I don’t really begrudge them, or anyone else their money, but I hate what the money does to many of them. I’m sure the majority of footballers are staying at home and understand to a large extent how lucky they are. But the very visible minority do the rest of them no favours. Football as a working man’s game has been destroyed since the emergence of Sky. Football administrators and their creation of competitions designed with the sole purpose of making money are equally culpable. It’s rotten and now it’s starting to stink. Many people now get their sports channels via other means, for a fraction of the price 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 (edited) With the news that Kyle Walker apparently won't be considered by Southgate again after his sex party, does that mean Grealish has blown his chances as well? Seems that Southgate likes good characters and people who follow the rules Edited April 8, 2020 by Xela Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And with Walker pushing 30 with both Wan Bissaka and Trent Alexander Arnold ahead of him at RB it was an easier call to make for Southgate. Long way until the 2021 Euro's and if he continues to excel I think he'll still get picked, maybe. Especially if he moves to a bigger club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Declan Rice and Mason Mount broke the curfew before Jack when they had corona cases in the club and was no response from Southgate Eric Dier probably still get a call up after his actions for Spurs few weeks back 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your right. Because we get too many wrong or we can't improve them, not sure which....perhaps a bit of both. Edited April 8, 2020 by TRO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
