NOUVELLE ATTACTION DES FOXEES is my new favourite phrase.

Unless she indiscriminately started stabbing audience members she has no place in this thread.

I don't think he did, no need to talk nonsense. There are plenty of reasons Sunak should be nowhere near public life, there is no need to make it up.

She is genuinely a star. The sooner this tax bollocks is out of the way the better. If she does end up resigning over a 5k tax error then the country will be the loser.

McKenna apparently has offers from both Brighton and Chelsea on the same terms. Now that is an interesting choice. I think though, if you choose Brighton, Chelsea won't ask again, whereas the other way round they might.

I don't think Pock was sacked, I think he walked. I think the salary on offer means anyone would take the job, even if they last a year then make 20M plus.

Yes and no, paid only passing attention to the Premier league while we were not in it to be honest. I do think though that they will still attract a good manager, and they have signed some very very good players who are starting to click. The other comment was more around Liverpool cannot expect to maintain their level with a managerial change, and they are in some respects in need of some squad overhaul. Chelsea need imo one or two and a decent manager to click.

Man Utd have absolutely already decided to part ways with Ten Hag, just waiting till after the FA Cup final. They will appoint Pochettino though. I can see them going for Enzo, they are ****wits and can see what Arteta has done at Arsenal after leaving Man City and will expect Enzo can do the same.

What a weird time to call the election. I can only assume as suggested on the News Agents podcast earlier that Rishi has the kids starting school in California after Labor Day weekend. They obviously think things are going to go more to shit in the coming months.

It might have been @ozleicester so I hid behind an Aston Martin.

In many ways Chelsea have been a basket case since Abramovich took over, and yet it has been their most successful period. Suspect they will get a good manager in and get top 4 before Liverpool do next.

I think it has quietened down a little because most professional sports bodies have come to their senses. You are right though there is plenty of other news to distract.

Ah you will. You are in the UK? I saw a bloke in a Leicester top at a British vintage car event in GinGin at the weekend and half wondered if it was someone on here.

Or indeed been injured for half the season, moved to Saudi or not playing for your club.

Indeed, hence playing Mainoo behind

Yeah I know, many think he shouldn't be there though.

He can spend the summer watching Foden be brilliant as well then

Good to see Southgate rolling the dice a little. No Henderson, Rashford, Sterling is quite a big deal for him. I suppose Slabhead staying at home is a wish too far

I really hope Foden can bring his Man City form to England then, he never seems like the same player. Hopefully after such a brilliant season he can keep it up.

No not really, sounds like it has been his best season by far though. So why not play him on the left up front? Is Palmer better? Is Foden really better than Bellingham or Rice in the middle for England?

I'm sure it is pure chance Arsenal were 2 points off a title this season! Bellingham is unbelievable though. Incredible first season on the biggest stage of all. No one is suggesting he should play a holding role though. I am sure he could with both hands tied behind his back and one eye taped shut.

No of course not, that ship sailed a long time ago! . You wait, Rice Bellingham Mainoo is our mid 3 for the next 5 years.

How is the Wales squad looking?

I would play Foden on the left of the front 3 as it goes, but I think Rice and Bellingham need a defensive midfielder behind to get the best out of them.

If Rice plays well we win. I don't think you can say the same about Foden.
