Congratulations on the (potential) promotion. I wouldn't get too excited about coming in here next season though.

Something that has bothered me for a while: is it possible to play a short corner (with two players standing by the corner flag as opposed to pulling one from the box) if the other person makes a substitution?

Firmino has just signed a new 5 year contract so Barca or Real would need to pay silly money, which i dont think they would. Barca need to buy all over the place and he doesnt have the necessary status for Real.

We know. You tell us almost every day.

Has Eriksen been brilliant all season? I'm not sure he has. Quality of CB in the prem can't be that good if Otamendi is in the team of the season. There is a gulf in class between him and Vertonghen.

All makes sense. Thanks. Following both your points, why wouldn’t Connor engineer a move to Bellator? They would presumably offer silly money in order to get their name up there with UFC and Conor would stand to double/treble his intake on the night if allowed to use his own sponsors...? Is...

Don't get me wrong, I understand that its Connor McGregor that the vast majority of the buys are for on a night he is fighting but doesn't the UFC "package" contributes to the numbers also...? I would guess a UFC undercard is far superior to a Bellator undercard....?

Would any fighter (especially Conor) consider leaving UFC for Bellator though? Is the money in any way comparable? Genuine question. I've wondered for ages why Michael Page doesn't move to UFC.

Why? He’s made a few mistakes but he’s 19 and shows nothing but massive promise. Clyne, an established England international, will get some minutes in the next few minutes but only so Klopp can rest Trent. Robertson has to be in any top ten Prem transfer list this year. He’s been fantastic.

We've as good as won the first leg. Handshakes all round.

Billions. Now I must admit: this is a guilty pleasure of mine. It makes me cringe and swear at the television but not only do I watch it, I actually look forward to it. However, I don’t really know why. The storyline isn’t remotely believable. Now I’m capable of separating reality from...

For the record, I’m a remain supporter and actually agree with most of what Jen says. Fair play to her for her efforts. I’m poking fun because I just absolutely love the “me against the world” narrative and the belief that The Man (1FF) is out to shut her down. It’s Jose Mourinho meets Alan...

“I don't like people who come here: 'Ooh, we did it this way, we did it that way'. I just wanna go do it this way. If you like. If you don't... Team playing-I call it team individuality, it's a new, it's like a management style. Again guilty, unorthodox, sue me.”

Boris’s recent nazi comparison for Russia: I know this gets asked several times a year but just what does he have to do to get sacked?

Any player in a purple patch always look like they have “movement on another level”. Remember Vardy a few seasons ago during that goal scoring run? He looked like he was in the fucking matrix. Salah wasn’t anything like this good for Roma though like you say, perhaps the way we play is a big...

I’m actually not so sure anymore. De Bruyne is next level and on his day, capable of truly wonderful football. I still think Salah is in a massive purple patch as opposed to KDB who I believe is a far superior footballer but player of the season is about contribution (to me anyways) and I can’t...

This thread is struggling if no one is making excitable posts about Linares Lomachenko. Its the first fight in a while I'm actually going to make the effort to stay up for.

By no stretch of the imagination is Eric Dier "solid as a centre back or right back".
