    He was good at reacting but I fancied us rotten when he had the ball at his feet.

    With all the pissing and moaning about Mane (how do you do an accent on a phone?) leading with his arm into Azpilicueta I feel we've lost sight of what a proper red card elbow looks like. See Leonardo in '94 or any of Dennis Bergkamp' s various efforts over the years. Not any vague contact with the face when challenging for the ball in the air.

    Also that Kovacic goal possibly rates as even more galling than the Mwepu one in the "well, he'll never do that again" stakes.

    Hold the key for little bit and the accent options should pop up.

    Kovacic will only ever score great goals so I’m not sure about that. Probably the most aesthetically pleasing player to watch in England with Bernardo Silva just behind him.

    It was bizarre. Didn't seem to use his left leg at all in the whole movement. Bit of a 1000/1 shot to end up postage stamp unsaveable.

    I didn't think the Mané thing was a red, but even if it was, no ref in the world will ever give one after 6 seconds.

    I've got Reading v Derby on, and the former have gone with a truly visionary front three of John Swift, Alen Halilovic, and Andy Carroll. Just another phase in the life of Berkshire's most powerful football dynasty.

    I mis-spoke - Swift's coming from midfield and they have Junior Hoilett up front, and Baba Rahman marauding from the left side (obviously). It's like being in a 2013 theme park.

    Even more so when Colin Kazim-Richards and Ravel Morrison come off the bench for Derby to win the game

    I’ve just clocked the centre halves on show too

    I stood in the Griffin Park home end for a Championship game no more than 3 years ago. As far as I'm aware all these no standing rules only apply to top flight football. Do they imagine that people turn into coke-snorting racist missile-throwing menaces as soon as their team gains top flight promotion?

    People still can't say 'Rangnick'. What is wrong with them? It's almost as bad as the many who pronounce 'Trippier' as if his first name is Jean-Claude.

    Has anyone asked him how he says it?

    Rangnick, not Tripper. I presume the latter has an R because he’s English, or more of an Ah seeing as you don’t do the letter R anyway.

    There's only one way to say it.

    Mugabe has just demanded that Scott McTominay add goals to his reservoir. Maybe he'd be better suited to managing the water supply.

    Raphael Varane/Phil Jones making their two hundredth appearance together in the multiverse. Ashley Young probably still at left-back, but Adnan Januzaj is the best player in the country because that tart never moaned about her Nando's.

    There’s always a ‘two world wars and one world cup’ pronunciation and a correct pronunciation for all these foreign types. And that just makes other ones get added on too.

    Trying to pronounce foreign names properly is wankery of the highest order. Just call me 'hoe say,' I don't give a fuck that you spent a semester in Sevilla.

    You’d wonder how nobody has ever had a word with Wright by now. When he hit 35 would have been a good time, let alone at 50+

    Pretty sure Griffin Park was an outlier and why I warmed to the club. Other clubs tell you to sit down so that the RLs of this world can watch their football.

    I love the Ruben Neves the long range shot specialist narrative. He has 1 goal from 200 such open play attempts in the premier league.

    You gotta wonder what cultural difference makes Sancho so potent against German football defenders, there doesn't even look like potential of him beating a man outside of the jokensliga.
