I think it is more to do with his relationship with the Real Madrid management and fans than his fitness or footballing ability. He was quality in the Austria WC qualifying game. As MLG said his recent Premier League record is not too shabby to say the least. I don't know if he would accept a pay if play type contract.

What was that pitch all about, players falling over all over the place. Anyone would have thought it had rained for a week.

The type penalty only ever given at Anfield. I think it was a pen but never normally given when nowhere near the ball.

He still looked pretty quick against the Austrian defenders. I would certainly have Gareth over Dan James.

I think you mean Ben White. Usually a bit of a premium for centre backs.

Unprofessional of Ralph to throw one of our players under a bus like that. Those kind of things should be dealt internally.

They were rattled but we barely tested them?

Other than dirty great pile of nukes.

Never seen so much diving and cheating. Ugly football but strangely entertaining.

Why are you calling out Bednarek when Salisu was far worse today?

20 20 hindsight as per usual.

Agreed there were 2 shirt pulls in the box on Djenepo and Salisu but VAR do nothing.

It came from Anthony Blinken, US secretary of state. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.politico.eu/article/us-secretary-of-state-confirms-plans-to-supply-ukraine-with-fighter-jets-via-poland/amp/&ved=2ahUKEwjx1rjgzLj2AhVSUMAKHRAuA-oQ0PADKAB6BAggEAE&usg=AOvVaw0kWPJwadn1PqMImKepbQBu

Blimey Pickford has a rating of 2.8 out of 10 on Fotmob! I don't think I have seen a score that low.

Not sure about that. Cuadrilla were very keen hence the 2013 fracking protests at Balcombe in Sussex.

I think the current gas prices will have significantly changed the economic advantages of fracking.

Yep. Playing the same team with 2 days less rest really caught up with WH in the second half.

Smallbone has done OK, agree with the others though.

Absolutely right. Sophie Raworth was surprised and gave her the chance to clarify and she chose not to. I think you will find that she was "off message" and Downing Street were equally surprised. The FS normally choose their words a little more carefully.

Who are you suggesting out of interest?

Glucose based probably.

I am really pleased you said that as that was my opinion too but thought I would get a whole lot of grief. I was very surprised at how long ball Everton played. Surely this must have come from Lampard.

Seen red cards for those. Well after the ball had gone he shouldn't be tackling at all rather than putting his studs into his shin.

I want to frame that picture!

He got plenty of stick for his performance on Match of the Day.
