    Are Inter fashionable again? Have we come full circle to 'Serie A, mate'?

    I do believe we have. Largely based on the permanently marketable nostalgia for when current 35 year olds were 13. I can't wait for the Miss Dynamite revivals in a few years, aimed at me.

    I ended up listening to some Ms. Dynamite and YouTubes autoplay followed that with Kelis - Trick me and Sean Paul/Blu Cantrell - Breathe

    What a time to be alive.

    PSG are wank, but both that game and the one against Spurs at the weekend would have ended as massively disappointing draws last season (or worse). What a time to be alive.

    That was a failed bid for her own ends. Society at large will revive her in the year 2024. 22 years is the absolute sweet spot for nostalgia. Look at all the 1996 stuff coming back this year: the Spice Girls, Three Lions, crappy away kits.

    Got so used to it last season that at 2-1 you just knew it was going to become 2-2. It also meant I was totally not expecting One Eyed Bobby to score a winner, making it all the sweeter.

    I don't think I've seen anyone but Floyd mention Ms. Dynamitee-ee since she done that song on the FIFA soundtrack.

    She seems to be a real touchstone in your life, Floyd.

    I'd hoped Sky losing the Spanish football would mean a long overdue escape from the reach of Guillem Balague, but there he is, plebbing it up with James Richardson.

    For some reason she embodies the 2001-3 period for me, for some reason, which is also the period when I was 13-15, my time of minimum life stress (as it is for most people) and therefore my permanent nostalgia touchpoint for marketing professionals to target.

    Other cultural touchstones of that specific period: CM 01/02, reverence for Sven-Goran Eriksson as a genial professor figure, lolling at 'Dubya' being stupid, Rhona Martin winning the curling, the Dowler/Huntley murders (a real golden age for British child murder), Iain Duncan Smith, and The Office.

    I think it ended when Outkast released 'Hey Ya', or possibly the decline of Craig David.

    Ronaldo seems to have been sent off for quite literally no reason at all in the other game.

    That Juventus kit is stunning. Ronaldo’s winning the tournament again so he’ll get the last laugh as usual.

    Man Utd’s midfield and attack tonight should be their starting line up for the foreseeable. Sanchez for Rashford at a push.

    Sanchez is going to turn into Albert Pujols, coming off the bench in the Checkatrade Trophy in 2023 for a quarter of a million a week.

    Ronaldo just wants the group stage off to model professional his way through another tough season. Was Diego Dalot any good?

    Good to see City following in PSG's footsteps and stinking things up. How can they only get 40,000 to come and watch? Can you genuinely not buy fans?

    You can't buy midweek fans. Liverpool specialise in that because it's that or another night of rooting through the bins. Bigger cities, less so.

    On the topic of Sanchez I traded him out in FPL for a -0.3 loss yesterday, so he will without a shred of a doubt score a hattrick this weekend.

    If the Referee had eyes the Spurs one still would have.

    That said, if he had eyes he would have spotted that Vertonghen was carrying one around with him, so swings and roundabouts.

    This story about Spurs stadium construction is quality. People drinking cans and doing coke in the toilets first thing in the morning and getting in fights with each other
