Give Rooney the job.
Ref was apparently appalling in the cup final. VAR will be such a huge help to the very poorly trained SFA refs.
Neto pulled a brilliant Roy Carroll in the Barca game. Ball was at least a foot or two in.
Was hoping Valencia scored on the break while all the Barcelona players were shouting at the linesman.
That would have been great and Zaza really should have done better there.
How are the Gary Neville failure XI + Zaza (of all people) doing so well in Spain this year?
Valverde has definite binman qualities. Could definitely see Barcelona going to bits at some point in the season.
Their team has changed quite a bit to be fair. I've seen them a couple times and they look really disciplined, and attack with real speed.
I liked Rodrigo's celebration. It was apparently a tribute, which explains a ballboy/staff member carrying around a giant orange wig ready in case.

BBC did a piece about it which isn't too bad.
Basically Marcelino is a don.
Montella sacked.
Gattuso in.
Any word on whether Montella has been sacked at Milan? If so, any news on who is taking over?
Ive heard that Montella has been sacked, and Gattuso is taking over, on at least two occasions this morning.
Don't leave us hanging @phonics and fill us in on what's happening in Milan.
More posts over a mistaken double post then the post itself. Nice.
Meanwhile Sean Dyche continues to cry.
So what you're saying Sean is that, despite you moaning about it for 2 days now, it was a penalty?
Everton are in talks with Big Sam.
Actually wait that guarantees their survival. Shit.
He'll go on a 5 game unbeaten streak only for the Daily Mail or The Sun to give him the sack soon afterwards.
The BBC sport front page pic of him is classic, although it's not there when you click through and it doesn't seem to have a link.
This is probably the biggest club he's going to get now and he could get them into Europa. He might actually be good enough to find the dying embers of Wayne Rooney's talent.
Rooney, by the way, was reportedly building a bar in his house to stop him going out and getting rat arsed. What a pro.
I've never understood why some people have bars in their houses. It's the least comfortable bit of any pub, and he can sit wherever he wants in his house.
I couldn't possibly make a drink using the table and cupboards I already own.
The bar is the only place to sit in the pub. Though I notice fuck all of them I've been in over there even have stools.
Kluivert junior is pretty good.
The touch to control that long ball for the third goal.
How does anything get done in Holland when they all speak ('speak') that? It's like that Al Murray bit about Russia being held back by not having a working alphabet.
Is that tweet not showing or is my phone just playing up?
He was amazing last year. Keep up.
Theres a bit on The Sun today, called FURY as Andy Townsend calls Eni Aluko love on the radio:

Should he be locked away into the Tactics Truck forever for it, or is this another overreaction from the fumers?
Those goals looked to be from the (left) wing.
Sky are showing another fucking Manchester United game tonight instead of the first Premier League meeting between Brighton and Palace.
How thick can you be?
Thick enough to put accountants in charge.
Brighton's televised game quota has to be met at some point.
They showed the Palace game and they're showing Bournemouth at home, presumably billing both as "derbies" while fans of none of the sides view them as such.
Do you mean they showed the Southampton game? We've been on four times already which seems quite a lot, but it is a little strange to not show the Palace game considering they chose the others.
They literally won't know that Brighton-Palace is a derby. Probably got some public school nonce in charge who would rather be watching Harlequins.
Quins are a bunch of sad acts. The Tottenham of rugby. I used to like Wasps before they moved to some other part of the British Empire.
Brighton vs Palace sounds like the most pointless rivalry in the world, and one that only exists because nobody cares about either club. It's like when nobody sides in the Greater Manchester area get all worked up about United, except in this case it is actually reciprocated.
The Graham Greene derby. It's no more pointless than something like Leeds/Man Utd.
That is more than likely completely one-sided for anyone under fifty as well.
My old man still considers Chelsea's main rivals to be Leeds (and by extension, any other northern team, who are just henchmen of Norman Hunter and his 70s Dirty Leeds pals). It's a great way of looking at football.
Last night QPR v Brentford was on, I commented on what a shit game it was and he said 'At least they're not showing northern football as usual'.
