Was Ince not also one of the various players staring at at his feet and trying not to be noticed when the future Sir Gareth Waistcoat ended up having to take a penalty against Germany too?

And when he did find his balls in 98 he missed.
I can only imagine the lolling when china whoever found out that Real wanted £85m for Bareth Gale.
They were lucky to be giving him away.
I hope Real Madrid have an awful season but it's a good move. He would be wasted in China just as much as he will be at Madrid.
Some Italian journalist, who is apparently good for Sarri (and of course some ITK) is saying Lukaka/Dybala swap.

Di Marzio and Agresti who are both extremely reliable for Juve are saying it too.
I dont understand that at all. Isnt Dybala a much better player?
Might as well swap McTominay for Pjanic while they’re at it.
I'm a twit
Ronaldo is 84, Dybala is 25/26. Ridiculous.
I still don't buy the Lukaku bullshit though.
I suppose if you stick Ronaldo and Lukaku up front together, all you really have to do is cross the ball.
Dybala playing behind Ronaldo sounds like a great idea. Especially considering Juve win Serie A by November.
Dybala strikes me as a nonce.
Dybala has the Argentince overhype syndrome. Complete shite like all of their strikers since Crespo.
He isnt a striker though, he plays the number 10 role.
Messi> Riquelme >Dybala > Aimar > Ortega >
Who am I missing?
Those are even worse for overhype.
Indeed, 'number tens' are even worse.
Everton has agreed on a £27.5m transfer fee, potentially rising to £36.6m with Juventus for Moise Kean.
Juve giving up on him that early?
Maybe they see him as Balotelli/Cassano 2.0
I had this thought re: Dybala/Lukaku.
I think United are in for Dybala, it's a perfect signing for them let's be honest (and by them I mean Woodward/Glazers and the folk obsessed with ramen noodle sponsorships).
What I don't think is that Juventus are in for Lukaku. Why would they want Lukaku, exactly? He's really not that good, and sure, Juventus will win Serie A by November, but what purpose would that serve them to have him?
I look at it like this. I think Juventus and United have basically agreed to a fee for Dybala or are likely very close to doing so.
Juventus and United both realize that Inter paying a higher fee for Lukaku is beneficial to both parties. Juventus have somewhat of a tradition of trying to jack up fees for players they don't actually want to cost their Italian rivals as much as possible.
As such, while Dybala ponders his future, they're leaking these swap rumors to try and con Inter in ponying up the cash up front.
This is a flimsy theory but anyways.
Di Marzio supposedly saying we're close to Bruno now.
Sign Bruno.
Sell Pogba.
Sign Dybala.
Sell Lukaku.
I've never really gotten the hype around Dybala, I haven't seen much but he's never impressed.
After thinking about it, Crespo was probably shit too. We might have to go as far as Batistuta.
Truth be told Dybala is one of those players who I've watched maybe 10 times but never once came away thinking "wow, what a player" but constantly hear about how good he is from the internet.
I reckon that Bruno chap will be a decent signing for whoever picks him up.
Can't see Pogba going, who is going to get near what United want for him? PSG if someone coughs up for Neymar? Barcelona if someone coughs up for Coutinho? Real Madrid if someone gives them £85m for Bale?
Any chance there's a PL or decent Championship club that would give Troy Parrot a good look on a season loan?
He's a decent chance of playing back up to Kane this season, so I'd imagine he'll stay put.
That would be even better.
Wolves have officially signed Patrick Corleone from AC Milan. I know nothing about him, so I’m dubbing him an Inzaghi regen into he proves otherwise.
If Troy Parrott takes Llorente’s spot in the squad then we’re fucked
Parrot looked very promising against United the other night. Was really impressed.
He's looked good all pre-season. Plus there's Son and Moura to step in of he's not quite up to it.
Basically not happening then, yeah? Same as Maguire and Bruno Fernandes.
Maguire is definitely happening. Players from Portugal it's fucking impossible to know because their media just spam bullshit constantly.
This whole summer you've been acting like an American fan who's experiencing his first ever transfer window
You've all basically spent the whole window screaming "STOOP HAVIIIING FUUUUUUN" at me. You can all chortle my balls.
Dickhead Eric Bailly getting yet another injury buys Phil Jones another year, so some centre-back had better be happening.
The Maguire transfer basically looks like it's one end of a little chain of CB moves, including Dunk to Leicester and Adam Webster (who?) to Brighton. Really think it'll happen.
As ever it seems people are trying to complicate transfers. Manchester United will sign Harry Maguire if they meet the asking price. They haven’t yet, so he ain’t going.
I feel they will get desperate and meet it but also Rodgers has said we have set a deadline before the actual transfer deadline as we don’t want to be scrambling to buy a replacement so United probably need to get a move on. Don’t think “Adam Webster” or whoever has anything to do with it.
Leicester wanting Dunk as a replacement and Brighton wanting a replacement for Dunk is entirely believable.
It's like house buying but with more dominoes. And less money.
