Erik Ten Million+ Compensation

Was beginning to seem inevitable and ironic it came after a game they actually played OK in and still lost.

Ornstein normally has good sauces.

If anyone cares the top 10 in the Ballon D'Or was as below

• Rodri
• Vinicius
• Bellingham
• Carvajal
• Haaland
• Mbappe
• Lautaro
• Lamine Yamal
• Kroos
• Kane

Women's

• Bonmati
• Graham Hansen
• Paralluelo
• Smith
• Horan
• Swanson
• Katoto
• Caldentey
• Rodman
• Putellas

Surprised Rodri got the win although he would have got my vote

[Bovidae]

RM had a sulk and didn't turn up.

[MajorRage]

This is the most Real Madrid thing ever. Win 3 awards, but as they don't get the big one, they have a sulk and act like they are bigger than the award.

Rodri won player of the tournament in Euro, with his team winning the tournament.
Vini Jnr didn't make the QF in Copa America due to yellow cards, which Brazil lost.

Vini certainly lit up the Champs League, but does that outshine the Euros?

There's an argument, but it's not open and shut.

Absolutely pathetic.

This is quite nice from a Spanish Journalist:

@MajorRage the comments are pretty toxic

[MajorRage]

@dogmeat Rule one of life. You don't listen to dickheads in real life, so don't read the comments on twitter!

Manchester United have a new boss:

Well the ABs might be playing averagely but the cherries are on a roll. City beaten…and Arsenal two weeks ago also at home. Big result

It makes me a bit less gutted about Villa conceding that last minute goal last week.

Liverpool looking the real deal.

[Kiwiwomble]

we talking all english football in here?

2-0 win at their soulless bowl, thats three wins in a row and a 6-0 aggregate...and CLE (who was with us last year and backed out of a deal to return on the last day to go to them) gets a red....perfect day

[dogmeat]

Thought you'd enjoy that.

[Kiwiwomble]

@dogmeat i know lots dont get it and thats fine...but yeah...that was good

[dogmeat]

I hear the new MK owners tried to reach out and clear the air but were rebuffed? They sort of miss the point if that's the case. Hating MK is your raison d'etre

they offered hospitality to our board which is the norm between clubs but their new manager and owners just dont get it. There was actually a resolution passed by our board just before we first played them that they wont accept anything like hospitality until they at least drop the "dons" (but probably never). the team do the bare minimum and take everything they need so as to not interact with MK unless needed

there is still this divide in the fan base whether we should be boycotting the game of we we should turn up in numbers to put them to shame, at very least those that go never buy anything in the ground, eat and drink before or after

[Billy Tell]

That was a fun watch. MCI 0-4 Tottenham.

[sparky]

Man City midfield looking a bit rubbish without Rodri.

[sparky]

Man City's worst home defeat since 2003 and the worst home defeat of Pep Guardiola's whole managerial career.
