    I see that the answer to this is that they have been chugging along in the background with absolutely zero coverage here presumably because all the British teams are in the next round already.

    Betis are currently 8th in the donkey league. I'm sure London Blue will manage.

    Looking through the squads of the teams left in the Conference League gives me such a hankering to play FM again. Whenever I actually have such a hankering and load it up, I then remember that it's like running a small business in terms of time commitment and close it again.

    Such a great competition. Borac Banja Luka in the last 16.

    Antony on fire though. I wouldn't be counting my chickens just yet if I was Chelsea.

    Good job we won the group stage. I suppose the only benefit could be if you get knocked out at that stage you will be one game a week for the rest of the season.

    Shit for them but great for the new format. This is exactly what should be happening if you fuck around in the group stage and finish 17th or whatever it was.

    Copenhagen. We're back in the game.

    UEFA Cup draw is so uninspiring. Surely a matter of time before the Conference replaces it as the second-tier comp, even with its third-tier qualifiers.

    We're beyond a joke now.

    Why were we sitting so deep and inviting pressure in injury time?

    I don't drink so no beer and the weather has been pretty shit today.

    It's been pissing it down for the vast majority.

    I'm currently in my hotel room after having eaten dinner.

    Big win for Wolves. Bournemouth down to 10 mn didn't help them. Reckless challenge, lad came straight over the top of ball after 20 minutes. You can view it here

    There's someone on the bench for us called Shumaira Mheuka. Think he played for my master league team on PES 3.

    I can't believe Sky were talking up the idea of a back five. Clearly they haven't met One Plan Enzo.

    Exclaimed 'Goal!' when that went in, like someone from an advert. Utterly ashamed of myself.

    I gave Pochettino a hard time - and rightly so - but my fucking god he worked wonders into making Gusto look like a competent player. He literally cannot do anything

    Ahhh, Jadon Sancho. I’m sure he’s the exact player you want in this period of the game.

    Just use your academy ffs

    £1b+ spent to not own a competent goalkeeper or defender and hire 3 clowns in a row. My fucking god

    We've now won 7 of the last 8 games, including our first win over Preston today since 2007 and our first win at Swansea since 1950. If Lampard is a big fraud he's doing a cracking impression of a competent manager at the moment.
