I can't be arsed to read back through this exchange, but I don't know wtf your point is. If it's that WW2 was a war fought in the name of God or religion, it wasn't. If it's merely that Hitler might have believed in God, that's a shit point, and pointless one. Your finest forum moments have been pretty shit SOG, but you're having a nightmare here mate.

I get that. If Russia were removed on a majority vote (assuming China objected), in reality, what's the fallout? They just need the balls to do the right thing.

It's unbelievable that they're still a UN permanent member, and to be able to take the presidency is outrageous.

When you think it's everybody else SoG, it usually isn't.

Yep, that's my understanding. He was plenty good enough for yes, and under contract. His not playing, then being sold, did not feel like 'rotation' or a even football related decision.

Yep, various rumours about him, but he never should have been frozen out or allowed to leave. The squads we had at that time had the potential to do very well. They were good times.

Yep. One of those players who could have been really good for us with a bit more luck and a following wind. Tadic was the same, very good, but the potential for so much more. Dare I say it, I think Ramirez fits in the same category - one hell of a player in there, I'm just unsure if it was the wrong time or just the wrong league.

Investigation

Transfermarkt puts the Clasie fee at €15m. If it was £6m then fair enough, that's reasonable value. I honestly think Carillo would offer no less than tall Paul. That's not praise for Carillo btw, just my view that they're equally shit. Lemina deserves a mention. Great talent, but appalling attitude.

Tall Paul or Carillo off the bench? Nothing in it for me - both shocking bits of business. Clasie deserves an honourable mention.

Yep. He's a huge talent, but we needed instant delivery, not "one for the future". That said, he turned us around yesterday, and he'll be a big help for the rest of the season.

You do not mention that we could have recalled him in the window. I agree that loaning him in the summer was the correct decision for the reasons you state, but I think there's little doubt that he'd have improved us if he'd been recalled in the window.

Great result from a young team...no Ballard 👀
