    England squad

    It's a league. I'm not saying it's a great system (at this moment in time, who can tell?) but it's a damn sight better than being served shit friendlies for 2 years.

    Not sure how I feel about this. Yes, they're bottom but the squad is shite. So he's partly to blame for not addressing the problems in the summer. Yep, Paco Alcacer is the leading goalscorer in the Buli despite having never started a game and not even completed 90 minutes coming off the bench...

    No. They aren't.

    Match Day Liverpool v Man City, Sunday 7 October 16:30

    It's not pretty but Guardiola must get tired of getting handsomely beaten every time he goes to Anfield. What he is doing this time around frustrates Liverpool as the passing is generally from deep and quite risk-averse. They do look the most likely to score. One for the lovers of tactical...

    Europa League 2018/19

    Rennes and Bordeaux lost, Marseille drew after being 2 up. The joys of the EL!

    Champions League 2018/19

    Lloris has to take most of the blame. He is completely at fault on the opening goal (conceding a goal in the opening minute at a packed Wembley vs Barca isn't really the way to go) and had a couple of heart-in-mouth moments. Thought Alderweireld was so used to play on the right of a back 3 that...

    Champions League 2018/19

    Messi hit the post twice early in the second half and then scored a brace with Suarez very intelligently letting the ball through on both occasions. Shame as Spurs gave it a right go.

    Lloris clearly at fault on the opening goal. Wonderful second by Rakitic. As I type this, Messi hits the post. There was me thinking that this would be a contest...

    Champions League 2018/19

    Still goalless against Valencia. Better second half but still very underwhelming game to watch. Only scoreless game of the night too. Great. I would have watched Lyon but I can't stand watching games in empty grounds (no fans allowed tonight for some reason) so decided for the best game on...

    I doubt a couple of mocking comments on a football message board will be as hard to take as the glee St Pauli fans will have about beating you on your own patch (if indeed St Pauli take the game today). Is there any trouble in those games? St Pauli pride themselves on being the coolest club in...

    The Ryder Cup is actually taking place very close to where I was born. My mum's uni friend's daughter's husband is Fleetwood's caddie. Small world. Couldn't give a toss about the actual sport though.

    So is he gonna get sacked or not? This bubble machine sure makes a lot of bubbles...

    Euro 2024

    Happy with that. Will spend a solid fortnight there and spend a fortune then. Pretty sure I'll have done all the grounds by then so it'll be just to follow France in the various stadia. Wouldn't have cared had it been given to Turkey. Would've gone there too. Oh well.

    What a wunderbar result last night as Hertha beat Bayern 2-0.

    And it is 5 defeats from their opening 5 games for Schalke. Tedesco on borrowed time? Haven't watched them seriously enough but the strikers seem terrorized to go towards the ball. Squad lacks personality imo.

    About the kick-off times in the Buli Zwei, I don't particularly mind attending games at this time of day. Remember taking a train dead early (probably 4am) from Munich to go to a Sechzig away game at Union Berlin. Was a great day out. Playing in the middle of the day enables you to get there...

    Champions League 2018/19

    Like I said, we've been served with this kind of performance year after year and knocked out by European giants for the past 5 years. Simply put, we never ever play out of our skin (except for the 4-0 home success vs Barca a couple of seasons back) in a big European night and last night was no...
