Very disappointed about the missed opportunity yesterday, but I have to say watching West Han’s demise is cheering me up. I hate that club.

No medal for you then . Cowardice in the Face of Christmas Card is a serious crime

I bet you are still on his Christmas card list though

If we do the right thing and abolish the monarchy then we can call the whole rancid lot of them as witnesses

Stayed in Syria for the first year of the civil war. Explosion sounds literally every 30 seconds. Where do I collect my bravery medal please?

Didn’t see the game but I hear Shaw was v good. One to discuss is can he play on our problem LWB position. Does he have the legs? Then we play three from De Ligt, Yoro, Mazroui, Maguire , Martinez and Heaven at CB. That way we finally get to drop Dalot!

Or even for Shaw with one of Maguire, Mazroui , Heaven or Martinez partnering with De Ligt and Yoro in the centre.

Can’t they buy United?

Excellent point

Trillion. I do beg your pardon

What’s 1.7 billion divided by your population?

1.7 trillion times smarter than us.

As of the end of 2024, Norway's sovereign wealth fund is valued at approximately $1.747 trillion (19.742 trillion kroner).

She hasn’t said no.

We voted for Thatcher so all our North Sea oil money has gone. You guys were a lot smarter.

Whoever had the idea to sign a goalie that can save shots, and to re-sign 2022 Casemiro was a bloody genius. That’s all it took.

Hang on Marit. If you win you split it 50/50 between me and Suky. You are Norwegian and have a share of a huge sovereign wealth fund, so you don’t need it.

I am tempted to try Mazroui. I think he could play on the left

That’s the problem .

Have to slag the team selection off to guarantee the win. It’s not easy but I think the decision to play Dalot over Dorgu is very bad. It’s also harsh on Mount that he’s not playing and I feel really bad for Mainoo

Look at when he scored then though ….

The only offer I’d give him would be a pay as you play contract.

But he was sensational a couple of years ago. Best left back in the country by a mile. Started for England too. That was after the horrific injury.

Yes but the season before last he wasn’t great. He suddenly kicked in to top form while negotiating his new contract, and almost like magic the goals dried up as soon as he signed. Coincidence? Maybe but I am quite cynical about modern day players.

Yes but my point is that if we give him a new contract he’ll get back to being permanently injured.

Well he’s playing all the games which is more than he has done for the last three years!!

Rashford brilliant season to get contract then massive decline. Salah brilliant season to get contract then massive decline. VVD the same. So now we have Casemiro and Shaw playing well in the last year of their contracts.

Don’t make the same mistake United ….

The Northern European nations could schedule two away games for the Jan international window. Play their home games on Sept and Oct .

That’s a good point.

Or incompetence. Both apply.
