Get Hendrick off.
Brighton: £50m?? Well in, lads.
Chelsea: Pending results of The Operation
Leeds: Danj-Ames! Danj-Ames! Danj-Ames!
Liverpool: Because FM contract renewals are the best bit!
Manchester United: Ronaldo 1-0 (plus some other nobodies.)
The Villa: Young. 
Tottenham: Levy will be delighted to keep Charlie Kane around.
West 'Am: Big Mark Noble's presence is like three new signings.
You didn't list [somebody else] Webly, you cunt.
If we don't talk about 'tiers' ever again it'll be too soon.
Get Hendrick off.
Nevermind that, the lad can barely run at champ level defenders, he's fucking past it
It is worrying the lack of technical ability in the players coming through these days. Even when we were playing crap but relatively successful football under Trap we always had players who could control the ball and play a pass. Now there's absolutely nothing.Originally Posted by Don
Decades of neglect has fully caught up.
I know he hasn’t flowing locks and plays for Bournemouth (note: plays) but there’s no way Gavin Kilkenny wouldn’t be showing a bit more in there tonight. Even if he wasn’t, at least he’d be learning something for 2024 or 2026. Also, Elbouzedi.
That’s a lovely flick.
That's some leap. We're donning this.
Connolly man, rape some gyal in a club already so we don't have to be exposed to your shit in top-flight football.
Whenever you see Connolly now you wonder what the fuck Spurs were at that day.
Cullen looks like Belgium has been doing him good at least.
Even though the inevitable defeat is coming, it’s nice to have the nerves this far into a game rather than the usual combination of despair and boredom. Been a long time.
Ireland have looked great to this point but serious questions have to be asked about Portugal's back line. So easy to get in behind and turn, Ireland probably deserve to be 2-0 up.
He’s a machine. Has had an absolute shitter and then bang.
Assuming this was about Jota?Nevermind that, the lad can barely run at champ level defenders, he's fucking past it
Dribble in-field and away from defenders, pass it to RB and run into box for a header. Rinse and repeat. If AWB wasn't horseshit I could almost see him getting 10 open-play goals. One thing is for sure tho, him, Bruno and Pogba in 1 side is gonna be banter.
There we go.
That is brutal.
We will have to do our best to fit Ronaldo in.
Shit happens. Enough of the young lads showed enough at least but only so long you can hold out.
There were a few chances that Ireland should have taken such would have them the game. They were actually decent for long periods tonight which is encouraging.
You really are the gift that keeps on giving.Nevermind that, the lad can barely run at champ level defenders, he's fucking past it
I’d love to have seen Parrott come on instead of McClean and, as well as Idah did for a kid, that second half was made for McGoldrick. Such a pity he fucked off.
Being blinded by 2 headed goals against Champ opposition is why you're keeping my money warm for me.
To be fair, putting away some scrappy headed goals against champ opposition would have served us really well last season to beat all those LOW BLOCKS.
Groups G and H are looking quite scenesy, although Group J is off its face obviously.
Sancho has got that covered, playmaker-extraordinaire.
That he does, with Ronaldo applying the finish.
Keep dreaming. Sancho has looked no better than Luke Chadwick since he's made the step up into into Premier league.That he does, with Ronaldo applying the finish.
Today's FIFATV offerings include:
14:00 DR Congo v Tanzania
14:00 Kenya v Uganda
17:00 Madagascar v Benin
17:00 Namibia v Congo
17:00 Niger v Burkina Faso
Consider them a warm up for Sancho taking on Hungary's low block tonight. If you're not watching Andorra - San Marino, that is.
We also have a site called OneFootball showing Asian qualifiers for free, apparently. Japan - Oman starting at the wonderfully precise time of 11:14.

'Mon Doctor Congo.
It was nice to see Javier Clemente's Libya get a late winner last night, too.
Javier Clemente is managing Libya?
Xhaka has covid.
Lol
Arsenal finally getting a lucky break
Turns out he isn't vaccinated, which is of course, not a surprise
That's not uncommon among Premier League players, is it?
It's not uncommon amongst those in their 20s full stop I reckon.
Surely a Premier League club can require its players to get the Covid vaccine?
You'd think so and I'm staggered if they haven't been requiring that.
Do employers have any legal ability to force an employee to get a jab?
I assume not, would doubt there's anything of the sort written into a player's contract and what else are they going to do, sack them and let them go elsewhere for free?
The issue is very few PL players are obese and/or soft shites who need to conform with their peers in order to make themselves feel better about themselves.
Oman beating Japan
Yeah the only way it would work is if all clubs in the top leagues went in on it together.
For non football-club employers, there's already precedent for it so I don't understand why it's such a big thing (I am required to have a hepatitis B vaccine in order to work in the NHS, not sure exactly which NHS staff it applies to).
I am already forced to do A, so I do not see the problem in being forced to do B.
Later,
I am already forced to do B, so I do not see the problem in being forced to do C.
Later...
I wasn't "forced" to do anything. I was free to choose not to have a hep B jab, and the NHS would have then been free to not employ me.
Semantics
Give him a yawn vid too, please.
You care for sick people that need protecting from disease. Footballers kick balls around.
There are some careers where personal liberty is less important than the safety of the people you spend time with. Football is one of them, actually. Hence mandatory shinpads and certain types of tackle being against the rules. Mandatory vaccines though? Really? They're at practically no risk. Completely OTT.
Having players out with long covid seems an operational risk football teams would probably want to avoid when there is a lab-made vaccine available.
Probably not as much of an operational risk as having Xhaka on the pitch mind.
