Even when down a man, France have made so many poor decisions when they’ve had the ball in the Welsh half they should still have won It anyway.

Hope so!

We go second in the league, and that’s your first reaction! Jesus wept. Still 100 per cent against sides who finished lower than the top seven last year.

Looks like the ERG are going to vote for it. Watch it be 52%-48%.

Imagine dropping two points away from home because a player who plays for Neil Warnock, and who should have been sent off for an elbow, scores a very dodgy late free kick that was also offside.

Jurgen Klinsmann celebrating scoring on his debut by fake diving.

There’s the possibility they’ve been told/encouraged to do it by the Turkish FA or maybe even higher, just to drum up support. Cags seems pretty patriotic anyway though.

Did Norwegian Air from Gatwick on a slightly smaller budget. It’s just a bugger to get Gatwick!

This was really good value last year given you’re yards from Broadway and Times Square. Smallish rooms, but you ain’t going to be in it much anyway. https://ameritanianyc.com/

He’s just signed for Bourne Town in Lincolnshire. www.stamfordmercury.co.uk/sport/amp/former-premier-league-striker-joachim-ready-to-make-bourne-bow-9084963/

Just driving around is pretty incredible and you end up stopping for all the waterfalls. Obviously there’s all the bits in the golden circle that are a must. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Circle_(Iceland) The Blue Lagoon is quite expensive but worth it, even just for the lava field landscape around it. So there’s two days gone near enough and Reykjavik has plenty to offer with loads of quirky bars and restaurants. I only went for three nights and one of those days the hotel warned us not to go out due to an unusually bad storm, so we didn’t get round to the glaciers, ice caves and uplands which are bit further east of Reykjavik. They all look amazing and have vowed to go back one year and do them.

I think the strength you’ve mentioned is as much the weakness in that he’s planned for Winks and Rashford to be the future for a long time. He’d also always planned for Mount to be involved for a number of years, hence him being fast-tracked over Maddison. Southagte’s been part of the backroom staff around the England set up at all ages for years now. The top performers in each age group have been ear-marked for the future over those years. Now he’s determined to make those they ear-marked work despite their currently being better options.

Maybe he put he was there on Instagram and blocked it from everyone except Rebekah Vardy.

Surely Madders would have got on tonight. May be a good thing for him he didn’t.

Before it to be fair!

And that post is why a lot of us Leicester fans are annoyed. Just the sheer arrogance. You’re effectively saying “Don’t go near our players in case one of them gets injured”. It’s not how they got injured, it’s just they did. Never mind the effect it will have on Hamza’s career. He’s collateral damage, as long as Liverpool are untouchable. And coincidentally of course we did lose Vardy in the run in of the title season to less of a dive you got the penalty for on Saturday.

You see on the BBC website main page there’s already no mentions of the penalty/dive, but Klopp getting angry about the never a red Hamza tackle is still there. It’s working. He knows their deluded fan base will go along with whatever he says and continue to go after Hamza for the rest of his career now, even though Salah will probably start their next match. It’s even waaaay above the Hamza receiving racism article.

The problem with playing Fuchs is he’s not got as much pace to close his opposite number down, so Robertson would have more room and space to do what he wants to do and get as far forward, as quickly as possible. Didn’t see the Liverpool - Sheff Utd game but a lot of the tactical analysis I saw suggested the Blades’ full backs pushing up as quickly as possible stopped the Liverpool full backs running forward and meant they had to pass in to the midfield rather than straight to their obviously dangerous front three.

Are the towers even open? When I went about five years ago they had been condemned so you couldn’t walk around them anyway. First thing I saw in the concourse that day was a dead dog. I’m guessing their fans are desperate for better facilities.

Ha. This all over. Will never forget that feeling at Stoke in 08 as I didn’t think we’d bounce back for years. I certainly never thought I’d see Leicester in the Champions League in my lifetime, never mind win the Premier League. Player wise virtually everyone Sven signed was going to make us a comfortable Premier League team finally. I remember also thinking there was no way Harry’s Kane would make it in the Premier League while Mark Davies would be a Prem midfield star for years.

I don’t think VAR’s going to overturn a penalty decision this season if Bournemouth didn’t get that penalty, especially given it was more of a own than the one given against them. (Cue us getting screwed over tomorrow.)

Something about Pearson’s daughter, so I heard.

Well.....at least it ate up five minutes.

I got 30, but after trying so hard to remember all the Pearson signings, completely forgot to enter half the current team including Maddison and Tielemans. @BigWesMorgan Don’t want to spoil it for anyone - but one of the answers is down twice.

To be honest I’m actually quite pleased with that T20 campaign as I went in to it not sure if we’d win a game. At least we saw some wins, record crowds and a few fantastic moments. In the end it’s the same points as last year but slightly closer to the top four. People are right about passengers and it’s sadly quite obvious who they are. I know it’s to do with money but can’t help but think if Abbas was in instead of Klein we’d maybe at least have got those two extra wins and snuck into that fourth place. On the Nixon good will, a lot of that is also down to what he achieved in the county championship last season. It makes the dip after that first game this season so disappointing especially with the extra place available for going up this year. Next year (presuming he’s still around) will be an important one for Nixon in terms of his own coaching career but as many of you have already pointed out, the recruitment side needs to improve massively.
