    Apparently Dyche said 'lads, it's Everton' at half time

    "I said at half-time 'I'm not sure these know how to win a game lads, away from home particularly'," he explained.

    "I said we have to play on that."

    Modric was brilliant here: teasing and controlling and manoeuvring the midfield despite looking increasingly like a 70-year-old Jimmy Bullard.

    Absolutely awful take from Jonathan Wilson today. Ronaldo held Real Madrid back during his time there. Truly impressive.

    Barca's 2nd goal was tasty too.

    Bodo have just got a late winner with a free header off a set-piece. Would love to hear the Mourinho team-talk at FT.

    That was a proper drab game and Lyon were proper shithouse. Big fan of Boateng fouling somebody on the edge of his own area then diving.

    I'd also missed that Jose lose to Bodo/Glimt again.

    Which of his players is his go-to scapegoat at the moment?

    They'll probably get something today now you've said that.

    I thought the same a while ago, but I also can't see enough teams below them getting past the points total they already have.

    80/1 to go down probably worth a few quid, just in case.

    Watford aren't taking 13 points from 8 games. I suppose were Brighton to lose all their remaining games they'd be in with a shout of going down, but I doubt they will and even if they did it's far from guaranteed that Burnley are going to even get to 34 points.

    Our only hope is that both teams are so bad a decent game accidentally breaks out but I won't hold my breath.

    Always fun watching Lampard stink the room up. He's only 847 games away from being a good manager now too.

    The trailer for the Gazza documentary looks like the standard 'best player we ever had' stuff. Might skip it.

    He was never my hero or anything growing up but my opinion of him really took a dip when ITV showed the Germany semi final from '96 and what I'd remembered as a heroic stretch to try and turn in that cross was in fact a fat cunt just not bothering to move until the ball was already basically past him.

    Nobody needs another Gazza documentary and while he was the most comfortable player on the ball I've still ever seen in an England shirt there's not chance in hell he was the best in the World as the trailer for that predictable shit claims. He wasn't even the best player in that England team FFS.

    We're absolutely clueless on the ball. It's like we have no idea how to build attacks.

    Talking of players who're comfortable on the ball I was at a conference for work this week where Sir Gareth was the guest speaker and he singled out Phil Foden as being this generation's version.

    There was also an open floor Q&A and I massively bottled asking whether Black Lives only Matter when they're in England or the US. I'm not proud of myself.

    Yeah, that was absolutely shocking. Get a new manager in and get this chancer out of the club.

    Could this Rangnick maggot have done any worse? I love the fact there were some stroking their chins and lauding this when Steve Bruce would genuinely have done better by now.

    Yes he could. We were in free fall with Ole and while it's mostly been stodgy, Ralf has tightened it up. The problem is the squad is either massively out of form or not good enough.

    So you'd welcome Ralf staying then?

    Another waste of a set piece there.

    Also has Ronaldo actually touched the ball?

    An offside shot, which I guess doesn't count, is all I can remember.

    Oh and whatever that just was.

    Aye. Imagine the player he could've been if he wasn't thick. The tackle against Germany in Italia '90 as well. All heart, no head.

    I'm not sure thinking Rashford is and always has been a bit rubbish is that much of an outlier opinion. I recall much mirth when he signed a big contract whenever that was.

    This seems to have gone back to the Moyes days where he could only think of getting it to the full back and crossing it in.

    Seems a genuine lack of any idea of how else to attack.
