  1. Aye, Owen played well in that little pocket. On Goalies. I think the standard of goalkeeping has come on so much these days. If you look back at PL years (eg) 92/93 a big percentage of goals conceded are GK howlers or shots that current GKs would have saved easily these days.
  2. Ive just put him in my fantasy football squad so no doubt he'll do something bad now.
  3. Not sure Jorginho has the mobility to play in our midfield. Good on the ball of course though. Id rather buy Maddison or Tielmans.
  4. Are any second choice GKs top notch though? They'd be playing in week-in, week-out if they were. Im happy with Darlow as number 2. Plus we haven't seen him enough on the pitch since Howe came in so his game will naturally go up 25%.
  5. I enjoyed it. Nicely shot and was never bored. Agree on the finale but that just sets a second series up on a different path. It had elements of The OA/Lost/Dark so if you're into them then I say jump aboard (pun intended) !
  6. Sounds a bit like South Africa. I think there were 8 construction deaths for Brazil 2014 and 37 for Qatar 2022 - although that is disputed by their Gov (which of course they would). I'm not sure we'll ever know the real number. I think they may gave got away huge numbers visiting the country as well due to fans being put off (for whatever reason).
  7. In all honesty I haven't read too much into it and I totally get the human rights issues, the move to a Winter WC and the clear corruption involved in getting it in the first place.....but haven't they organised it quite well ?
  8. 94 was one of my fav world cups. It was nice just watching without England.
  9. You have all the stats, what does an opinion count? 😛
  10. I think he is excellent but his injury record is a bit iffy.
  11. There is nothing special to him as a player from outside but I guess he has big influence and standards on the pitch from within the teams he has played for. I've never really rated him but fair play to him. He has had just about had the best career he could have with his ability. Thats down to hard work.
  12. Aye, looks like Murphy is preferred over him as well.
  13. McKenzie is apparently a grade A weapon as well. Allegedly
  14. Im with Rents on this one. Couldn't get into it.
  15. I think Trippier as been a bit ropey in the WC. Certainly not hit levels he has with us. Mount needs dropping for Foden and Maddison needs some minutes. I'd also start Grealish over Sterling. Sterling maybe more potent but we could barely keep the ball v USA. Grealish is generally good at keeping possession and wins lots of fouls - which me might need.
  16. Its not even a contest. He should have gone for Joyce. At least he has half a chance.
  17. Are we getting traffic news on player build up to Aussie game?
  18. Would love to see Keane knock Souey out.
  19. Tricky one but I guess id go with pay for it rather than not have it (depending on circumstance of course). The problem with that route is it will open the floodgates.
  20. Was the Scottish talking about charging the wealthy for care yesterday? (I only saw the headline so haven't read full article yet).
