And you did your usual thing of taking what I’d said and manipulating it, rather than engaging in any meaningful discussion. The bit you highlighted was a conversation that I’d have with a friend, defined by the quotation marks, so clearly that element was an opinion. But yes, you are willfully...

Which is why the senior players need to be able to read the situation as it develops and pick the best option. Playing Baleba in there was suicidal with everything happening around him. And I think that’s the big issue. Last year Steele was made to look good with the ball at his feet because of...

Either way, he shouldn’t be receiving the ball from Steele there with his body position as it is.

There’s nothing wrong with it? Sure… if Caicedo’s there, or Gilmour, maybe. But Baleba hasn’t shown that ability in those areas yet. His body position is totally wrong, which Steele, the experienced pro, can see. This leaves Baleba one pass to his right to a kid he’s not even looking at or a...

I’m not a fan of the club’s ticketing policy to be honest. And, as we’ve seen multiple times this year, it often leads to many empty seats at games, and the subsequent loss of sales elsewhere on game day. But whatever. Now we’re Premier League we don’t have to care about fans as much.

Thank you for your usual patronising response, I really appreciated it. Firstly, it’s not about his effort, it’s about his quality, or lack thereof. You claim he couldn’t have prevented any of the 4 goals last night, whereas I’d argue all 4 of them were at least partially his fault. A good...

And this is the biggest issue with Steele. There’s no expectation that he’ll do any of the goalkeeping stuff, so rather than sticking with the clear upgrade we end up in this vicious cycle of incompetence with him, where half of us say it as it is (which is that he’s not good enough) and half of...

Oh, I know, trust me.

It’s this guy again…

I must say, seeing that team concerns me massively. But fingers crossed 🤞

Or in goal?

I’d keep going. I’ve not played it in years but it’s one of my favourite ever games. I believe I had one crash in the whole play through though… which helps.

South America’s great to watch football.

The thing is, the offside rule is such an easy fix with VAR, in a way that many could get on board with. It just blows my mind that there are people being paid 6 figures who still think this is the way forward.

The bigger issue with the boats is how we’re dealing with them, or not dealing with them, as is the case with the Tories. As for the people on the boats, they aren’t illegal immigrants, which is a Tory coined phrase. They are people whose status is yet to be decided.
