that can’t be genuine, surely?

Could have done with a few more flowers….

I feel like he just needs a good run of games. He’s the victim of Ndidis re-emergence and finding form. Beginning of the season there were perhaps too many players trying to find their feet.. we won some games but it felt like we were scraping by at times.. it would have been the wrong time to carry him and let him learn. Now, everyone knows what they are doing and how to play the system and it’s seems like the right time to blend him in a bit more. Hes going to be excellent one day..

So it’s a fair comment if people say teams have previously shown us too much respect. It’s almost like people have prepared for defeat/ a draw before kick off. Sunderland didn’t and I massively respect them for it. More difficult for us than the Hull game. A win tastes better when we have had to work for it.

Daka?!

It’s like we have really missed Ndidi…

It feels like this is our biggest test yet…

Look, it’s not easy keeping 156 keepers happy..

my reputation proceeds me!

oops my bad. No excuses other than I’m a div. Sorry @Daggers.

You could try explaining war isnt hell to some of the people in this article... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-67198270

If it happened in his private chambers as alleged then most likely him. However it’s totally Russia for him to be in a coma and body doubles to be used. There’s such sophisticated technology around that they’d only be able to get away with that for so long, mind.

I understand the difference between a cardiac arrest and A heart attack- I work in the medical field and in fairness she does say at the end of the article that he was resuscitated. IF this article is true, he probably had a heart attack that stopped his heart but he was resuscitated. The kremlin has its own medical facility so they would have had everything needed right there. But again, IF this article is true. But I will add, more sources do seem to be picking up on this. however , it would totally be the sort of demoralizing event that Ukraine would plant to gain the upper hand on the battlefront. I guess it’s a wait and see. I just wouldn’t put any money on The kremlin to come forward and volunteer some potentially catastrophic news for them..

I don’t think he’d fake a heart attack. I think he’ll be advised that this is unwise as it would sow seeds of doubt in his ability to do the job and he wants absolutely everyone in line and behind him thats not to say this is definitely true as someone else could spread false news to destabilize him..

no evidence for that, but evidence for Parkinson’s. ( the visible shaking, ect)

which will hopefully at least rattle on long enough to make their position in Ukraine untenable due to lack of funding/ will to fight on…

Stories come from wider sources than the express... https://original.newsbreak.com/@susie-kearley-1605153/3202383917682-putin-suffers-cardiac-arrest

Parkinson's. Technically, that's a neurological condition and you can still be healthy with Parkinson's. First indication of heart problems, though..

yes a new progressive person who isn’t warmongering and sees the USSR as a thing of the past would be the preferred option. I would also say that I think and hope if he was to go that there would be free and fair elections… that this would be the time for the people to take to the street and voice their call for democracy. it would also be a good opportunity for a reset in the area and the best chance of Russia pulling out of Ukraine, sanctions lifted and a better life for all. in fact it would be to good to be true if something had happened to him so I dare not hope until there’s more concrete evidence..

No way that’s happened naturally. Fit and healthy man. He’s been poisoned, if that’s true. I will say this though everyone… if Putin goes, there are people equally as mad/ worse who might fancy the gig. Believe it or not, in the context of Russian politics, he’s not a hardliner. compared to others who might fancy a go..

This man was almost my hero. Almost.

Got a lump in my throat just seeing his face again. How bad is that? Also, nailed on win. It’s not like we needed the encouragement/help but it’s for sure now as it’s going to be an emotionally charged game..

Marc Guiu. 16 year old making his debut for Barcelona today. Scored with his first touches and within 30 seconds of coming on. Fair play to him!

and how did you find this out
