That is bloody crazy

Did I miss something?

Liverpool 6/11 players …. And they came second? You’d have to conclude Klopp is shit then no?

Son …. Golden boot without a single penalty. Doesn’t make it.

@MajorRage It's voted on in March I think and it is voted on by players so they tend to pick without much thought. Ronaldo is the biggest outlier in that team of the year, how is he ahead of Son & Kane?

@dogmeat that doesn't come as a surprise to anyone remotely aware of the largely unfettered migration of African and Middle Eastern males into a country that doesn't share a culture, language and opportunities?

I guess that's what they do on their days off from touting junkie Eiffel tower replica ornaments

Not sure where else to put this but I enjoyed the read

I bought the EDEN PARK sign that was above the players tunnel for my brother when they demolished the old South Stand

I bought a York City turnstile at auction. It’s the best £300 I’ve spent

When Bootham Crescent was bulldozed and sold off, I snapped up a cast iron turnstile. It is a portal to vanished worlds

Disappointed. Yes

French need to get their shit together before RWC & Olympics

It seems more about how much you can pay players now rather than transfer fees given Fredericks (and Rothwell from Blackburn) have come in on frees. Forest have bought Awoniyi, a striker from Germany who I saw a bit on the Bundesliga highlights, built like a fridge.

Meanwhile Gareth Bale looks like he is going to MLS and not Cardiff.
