    Juan Mata wants putting down the poor bastard. He's absolutely wasted his peak years at United.

    I don't even want to search the posts from the Utd fans on here when he scored a couple goals at the start of this season. No one needs that level of shame.

    Can I predict that the 9 were those that fancy themselves as 'big clubs'?

    It's a stupid rule, thank goodness it's gone.

    Allahuakbar. No decision on drinks break and VAR, yet? Also last I hear of crowds was target date of October so I guess we're starting behind closed doors?

    I take it no restrictions on Young and Alexis to play, right?

    Edit: Young ain't even on loan. Those two and Romelu running riot against them would be great lols, three of the most blamed individuals from their last few years.

    I think the first legs stand if they playd them before covid. Yesterday only the Inter game was the only one played as a one off.

    Greek GK just gave away the softest penalty of all time. 1-0 Wolves.

    Jimenez is fully in peak Hugo Sanchez mood. Be a shame if this Wolves side don't win this. Be a greater shame if this cunt goes to Utd and they win the quadruple.

    In other sights, Olympiakos have a Malian CB partnership, 24 years old each, both grown up together at same clubs, both with a combined penis length of over 1 metre and there's scouts going to Lille to get bumraped for an emotional Brazillian melt

    First time all season Wolves have looked tired here. It's ok though. These greek man are softer than that feta cheese. Onto Sevilla in the quarter finals.

    I know players born before a certain date qualify but it need reevaluating. Martial is 25 in a few months.

    Without Eden Hazard. His season was 5 times better than Sarri's. We had no real right to be above Arsenal and Spurs.

    Jody is definitely the brains of the operation, which having watched him as a player does come as a bit of a surprise.

    Lampard brings the proper binman qualities: regal disposition; a few war stories about when Ricardo Carvalho was pissing in the same urinal you're pissing in now, Mason Mount; houses in town and country; that sort of thing.

    Why is Lampard better than Solksjaer? Not that I'm really arsed with it going to Klopp but it seems pretty random to think the former has done better than the latter.

    As far as I can see they've both done basically identical jobs - marshalled a not terribly impressive squad competently into an open goal top four while introducing good youngsters.

    Lampard probably gets a pass due to nationality and our football has been more lively than United's.

    Leagues One and Two vote to bring in salary caps, effectively immediately:

    Am sure this will be just as effective as FFP.

    Worth remembering as well that United lost Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez last summer. Chelsea only lost one really big name.

    Will this not just lead to the richest handful in the National League splashing the cash? Or do they already have something else in place.

    We're apparently now doomed to a life in
    the lower leagues, unless we can get out this season.

    If it's going to be done, it really needs doing holistically.

    You would need the entire world to adopt it in that case.

    Am I reading that right that players from relegated teams are going to be paid some kind of “league average” if their wages are too high? That sounds like total bollocks.

    We could start with the whole of England and go from there.

    It sounds like there are lots of legalities to come with this, but if we were smart (which we're not) we could use it to our advantage by developing our academy and/or signing younger players who are exempt from the cap.

    Also, a blanket wage cap irrelevant of turnover seems a bit strange. We'll be making several times over what most of the other clubs are in the league.

    I assumed it was they would be paid whatever was in their contract, but that 'average' amount would count towards the salary cap.
