    Great assist from Ron. He's like a Portuguese Dalot

    EDIT: Lindelof making some goat herder look like Pele's regen, of course

    I would genuinely like to know how he plans to 'highlight' these things during routine commentary duties.

    I was just reading about some 'World Cup Cruise' which will no longer be going to the world cup because the Qataris have closed the ports during the world cup or somesuch, and only people with tickets are going to be allowed into the country. It's going to be such a colossal clusterfuck that widespread boycotting of it should really be considered.

    I hope someone (other than Jimmy Jump) has prepared a proper barnstomer of an in-stadium protest.

    Gary Neville's stance on this is genuinely ridiculous. He was even talking about how he regrets championing what was going on at Man City not so long ago, so fuck knows how he's squaring this one in his utterly confused mind.

    It'll be funny if he actually does go off on one against the regime and gets himself arrested.

    You joke but I think that (the Beckham thing) genuinely might be it. The Class of 92 seem to be one in, all in on most things. Which might be a problem if Giggsy ends up in jail.

    Guessing it's because it should have been a Saturday lunchtime job and Man Utd were in Cyprus last night.

    Erik ten Hag's side will face Everton at the aforementioned time this weekend following a logistical issue that means it will have to take place outside the normal kick-off times reserved for Sundays. The game was originally chosen by BT Sport as their Saturday lunchtime match but as United are in Europa League action on Thursday they cannot play until Sunday at the earliest.
    The Manchester 'United' club must be on TV at all costs.

    The police have caused Man Utd issues for in two weeks time as well. Slashed 500 of their tickets for some reason and took until now to fully confirm when the game was actually being played.

    I assumed Europa League teams playing on thursday nights would've been factored in much earlier in the scheduling so they'd just have been on sunday at a normal time or monday night.

    Thiago injured again it seems and now Arthur Melo has done something in training which needs surgery to fix. Out for 4 months.

    That'll be James Milner back in the starting lineup then.

    So what are we looking at, Henderson + Milner + Fabinho midfield?

    I actually think he's going to be forced into 4-4-2 out of necessity. The three you mention are the only natural C(d)M types we have fit. Harvey can play there but I'm not sure as a two.

    If you ever did want to try Trent as a midfielder now would likely be the time.

    Meanwhile I'm watching Nunes run through Chelsea's entire side and slice them open with a superb final ball. Sickening.

    Euro 2024 Qualifying draw is at 11am. Scotland seeded and in pot 2 and have the potential of a ridiculously easy group. Think top 2 go through as well so no excuses.

    In before they get Slovakia and Turkey from pot 4/5 over your Malta’s, Luxembourg’s etc

    Scotland are at their best as underdogs. When I think of Scotland I think of them grinding to a 0-0 draw with Georgia or Lithuania because they can't cope with being favourites.

    Just came in to say the ramifications of our shit Nations League could create a bit of a chuff.

    We've drawn Italy, and if we get a good Pot 3 team, it's going to be back to mid-90's England qualification struggles :drool.
