More likely someone on drugs. Some gangster tripping.

Southampton’s management team with Russell Martin going elsewhere? Fine. As long as we don’t get Russell Martin here.

This is brilliant! It gives me faith that the very loud Potter Out Campaign who are preaching ‘Anyone But Potter’ are in a small minority. Whilst I would be underwhelmed with either of these managers, the vast majority of Albion fans obviously see that Cooper’s tactics and style are not...

I can’t argue with that. For me, RDZ is our best manager of all time and Potter is the 2nd best. It’s not only league finishing positions that back this up. Both managers have have pros and cons. I’d sum them up like this: Pros: RDZ 1. A unique (and now much copied) style of football of his...

Disappointing that the Lib Dems are still in second place when they are the best party to challenge a massive Labour majority. If 1996 is anything to go by, the Tories will be an ineffective opposition for up to a decade. Unfortunately, the hard left can’t understand pragmatism. They need the...

I’m out completely. I have absolutely no interest in him being a great bloke or having a brilliant personality if his tactics absolutely suck. He is nowhere near the level of Potter and De Zerbi in terms of understanding the game. Luckily, TB does not believe in devolution so we wont be going...

I love that his main attacking line against Biden is the implication of dementia. It seems there is a lot more mush in Trumps brains than Bidens now. Not that either of them are a credible leader anymore.

To add to this….. 1. It’s incredibly difficult to win an international tournament without winning a penalty shoot-out. 2. Penalty shoot-outs are all ‘in the head’ at this level. Most England players would score 95/100 with no pressure. 3. England don’t win penalty shoot-outs mainly because of...

If his dissertation isn’t on something like ‘the art of tackling’ or ‘effective distribution from a deep lying midfielder’ then I’m afraid I’m out. Views on Sugawara?

I agree with the entirely. I was making a generalisation.

Tactically, it has to be a massive downgrade. RDZ threw a massive strop due to injury and recruitment issues and was unable to inspire his team to play well. He demonstrated this by refusing to play his favoured 4-2-3-1 formation and tactics because he didn’t believe he had the personal to do...

I thought Farage had his arse handed to him by Piers Morgan last night. The Tory looked defeated for most of the programme and Wes came out very well indeed. The Piers/Nigel defence of public school boys at the end was very annoying as there was no time for anyone to comeback at them with :-...

Trot on @dwayne.

Owen Jones would prefer the Tory to get in. It suits his nasty agenda. He wants the smallest Labour majority possible so his lot still have a say on the left. In effect, he is working night and day for the Tories. He is one of their best election weapons.

Very interesting. He is a very similar player to KDH. Left footed. Central. Likes a goal and assist. Can do all round midfield things. Similar age. £10m or so cheaper though I’d suspect.
