    Euro draw could see a final of top Ireland v bottom Ireland. I'm so glad we've avoided them but I do think we'll flatter to deceive compared to the last Euro's.

    It would also appear I owe Giggs a bit of an apology. Cunt.

    Wales are surely no worse than they were last time, they still have their star guys and the likes of James and Wilson are better than some of the jokers they had then. That said, I doubt they'll be getting to the semis or turning Belgium over this time, so I guess it depends on how you judge it.

    It really is gone into a load of bollocks. We shouldn’t be anywhere near a chance, never should have risen above 16.

    Bosnia look the pick of the 4 in our playoff but if the huns beat them then I just hope we lose in Slovakia because the nordies beat us 9 times out of 10 easily.

    Dortmund 0-3 at home to Paderborn, approaching half time. Hummels legs have gone, and Weigl at centre back is weird.

    Good spiel on what a shit show it’s become near the end of this. A once great tournament descending into a joke.

    We're looking much better tbh, aside from 1 or 2 games but given the limited pool of talent at our disposal, we do tend to create some pretty decent players and I reckon we go into this Euro's with a 'stronger' national side. I'd take qualifying from whatever group we're in as a success but then this is only our third major tournament in our entire history and in those we reached the quarters of the World Cup (way before my time, mind) and the semi's of the Euro's. I'd fancy our chances against most if I'm being entirely blinkered but if they score first, we be fucked.

    His debut when they got pumped 4-0 by a lower league team in the cup was amazing. Didn’t attempt to dive and save any of them.

    This might be the end of the road for Mister Pellegrino, and then Jose will go on for the rest of the season about how he got him sacked.

    Good to see The Ox getting a start today, though I can't quite figure out where he'll be playing. If it's the bog standard 4-3-3, then LW means Mané moves but I don't think I've ever seen The Ox play RW.
    Option there for a 4-4-2 with a diamond too.

    Salah making the bench is positive after being in a walking boot last weekend, but I'd wager he'll only feature in an emergency.

    If he appeared in a Soccer Aid game and someone told you he hosted the Spanish language 'Take Me Out' you wouldn't question it for a second.

    Lino in the Palace-Liverpool game raised his flag for a Palace offside, the ref didn't immediately see it, so it just lowered and everyone played on.

    I will never understand when a player runs into a defender and it's a foul and when it's not.

    I can only understand the argument for ruling it out if they've deemed the pushed player would have cleared the flick on, but I don't think so. Daft decision.

    You should see the penalty we've just conceded. Makes that look like a shove.

    Arsenal just got a suitably soft penalty but it's ruled out for offside. The games gone. Football is as much if not more of a non-contact sport than Basketball.

    I had the choice of him or Pope and gambled on a 0-0 shitfest in the Brighton game (as I have loads of Leicester defenders as well), the penalty save would have justified it.

    There are another 5-6 goals in this game but City can go fuck themselves. Kanté and Jorginho are owning them.

    He's the best that has ever played for Chelsea by a fucking mile. One of the best of the PL era for anyone. Because he's black, small and doesn't score many he doesn't get the credit (although he scores more and more each year).

    It's no coincidence that he was there in the supposed 'miracle' Leicester year.

    We are such a good all round side. Next four look so winnable as well. Table could look very interesting by the time we play Man City and Liverpool either side of Christmas.
