Possibly the 36, true. I did say jubilee bracelet - oyster steel is what the case is made of like this one https://www.rolex.com/watches/datejust/m126333-0010 :)
He is wearing a jubilee bracelet with a mix of oyster steel and gold. The other two main Rolex bracelets are known as the Oyster and the President.they also make a rubber band with some other ridiculous name.
Oystersteel is the marketing crap for the alloy used in the cases and bracelets making them seem like a super steel.
The Oyster term was used by Rolex the masters of marketing in the 1920’s to market their cases as being waterproof.

What is interesting is that, to the best of my knowledge, not a single player has made a social media post after Saturday's game, and that's very, very unusual. Many of the players don't go into hiding on the back of a poor result.

So I do wonder if they've been given a few days off - it would be particularly valuable to those who had long-distance travel during the international break, immediately followed by three high-intensity games.
Like the rest of us I was unfortunately caught up in the moment a full time on Saturday, ie gutted, but apparently Warren A was going ballistic on the wireless as JP never went over and clapped the fans, can’t say I noticed, and was he the only one?

Didn't have Warren down as a 'woke snowflake'.

So after Saturday's match it seems they were all given Saturday evening to Wenesday off. Back in Thursday morning. They were probably also told to keep quiet about it and Joao Pedro didn't, because for him updating insta is more important than doing what is employer has asked him.

Anyway, for those who have had internationals, there has been a lot of games. I think a 4 day break before the last 7 games is reasonable.

However, it does put pressure on us right? If we don't beat Leicester, FH has to field a lot of questions about why we didn't take preparation seriously. This is why Joao Pedro should have left his phone alone for the last few days.

Maybe not all, might just have been those that travelled/played internationally..................

In terms of adding additional pressure, damned if he does, damned if he doesn't (and always with hindsight). Keep them in training all week and we lose and it's 'waaaaaah, why didn't he give them a few days off'

Which is why it's better that the questions never get asked in the first place

Who's that man away in Spain?
Who's the man we all adore?
Joao Pedro is his name
And if he doesn't score again
He won't be getting mini-breaks anymore.

Is that supposed to be Haiku?

Haiku are 3 lines of usually un-rhymed words totaling 17 syllables. The syllable pattern is: 5 on first line, 7 in second line, 5 in the last line.
