    Inter looking very good there, obviously going to have tricky moments but tactically they lead the way in the sport because player wise they're not that special. Incredible coaching.

    And this is part 2 of my earlier post ...

    Am I being thick or did Carragher basically call her a whore? He's lucky it's not 2020 or he'd have been insta-cancelled.

    Magnificent from Keys as always.

    Inter are absolute toilet, and then you go and put the kiss of death on them so I'm not sure what you were expecting really.

    Atletico knocking Arsenal out would be lovely. Simeone would have half of Arsenal Twitter on the phone to Samaritans

    Oblaks second save was silly. Laddo put it right in the corner and he still got it.

    Paris St-Germain are preparing an £80m bid for Manchester United's 26-year-old England forward Marcus Rashford and would be willing to pay him £500,000 a week. (Star)

    PSG are interested in Liverpool's Colombia winger Luis Diaz, 27, as a replacement for 25-year-old France forward Kylian Mbappe who is set to join Real Madrid. (El Pais - in Spanish)
    Have they lost their minds in Paris?

    Not included other players but the money they have probably lost on Neymar, Messi and Mbappe must be insane. It is yet to see what happenes with Mbappe but I suspect Mbappes brother, Ethan will be sold to Real Madrid for a silly fee, as part of the Mbappe deal to recoup some of those losses.

    I'm sure Waff or Randrew will be along to bore you to death on the xV (expected veracity) of any sources pushing that story but if there's even an ounce of truth in it and United don't try to make that happen then they need their heads read.

    I can see that maybe Luis Diaz brings in viewers from a big South American market, but giving Marcus Rashford half a million pounds each Monday morning would be quite deranged.

    Just a shame the South American market can't finish a one-one-one.

    I quite like Diaz as a player, despite his inability to score, but replacing your top scoring best forward in the world with him seems like a questionable plan. Two not half as good goal shy forwards aren't going to fill that hole.

    They've always had a hard-on for Rashford though, if you believe the media rumours, so presumably his people are good at putting that link out there.

    He'd probably be good in League One. Run fast and kick the ball hard in a straight line should account for Nimes or whatever.

    I like Diaz but if you are being offered £100 million for him you take that all day long especially if you can get Salah to stay next season.

    Sending the big guns out despite being 5-1 up from the first leg. I'm sure this wont result in any injuries whatsoever.

    Presumably it will result in a few 'tweaks' which will keep them off international duty.

    Although most of the ones picked probably just need the game time.

    I assume this never happened seeing as he's in the England squad.

    Hadn't realised we had such sexy friendlies coming up.

    Leverkusen losing their first game (and subsequently the tie) of the season to a 10-man Qarabag at home would be quite something.

    Following the news that 3 AFC's in a row are held in the middle east, and the next 5 (FIVE) Asian Champions League finals stages will be held in Saudi, we now see the next 2 U17 World Cups awarded to Qatar. The middle-east; A genuine hotbed of football.

    I see Sir Henry has gone for Ben White today in The Times for refusing an England call up.

    The guy looks and comes across like a bit of a dick but can you blame him for not wanting to spend the next two weeks sat around in a camp knowing he has no chance of playing in any important games.

    You're well shot of guys like that as the backups in a national squad, and much better off for having worse players who love being there.

    Not necessarily wrong but you have to make your squad players think they are part of it at tournaments as well that's part of being a manager at the top level. To be fair to White he sat through Euro 2020/21 without getting a minute and 2 weeks of the World Cup without looking like he was going to get a look in as well. What's the point of turning up if you seemingly have no chance of playing at all even in effective dead rubbers or at the end of games where it's already won?

    Well exactly. Southgate himself was constantly the 4th centre back in the squad so should know.

    It's weird how all these good managers say he's incredibly dedicated and giving 100% effort all the time but masterminds like Steve Holland think he's lazy.
