Danbert

The New Statesman makes the point that Truss pushed through the Australia deal to make herself look good (Wow look Brexit we have a shiny deal) while fucking over the farmers in the knowledge that actually it wasn't a good deal for the UK. So, of all the only oven-ready deal we've signed is shit, and we've given up on deals with the US, or China or India and we've torn up the one that added 4 percentage points (which is a hell of a lot) to our GDP because of 20 years of stories in the Sun about banana curvature - meanwhile austerity. I'm so glad I live broad. Every time I come back to the UK, which isn't very often, the place looks poorer, and the people I talk to are struggling. The UK doesn't even seem to be able to afford to fund essential services like schools or the NHS properly anymore. It's bitterly depressing, and it's down to the Tories and to Brexit. Great that truckers get paid more though.

What is the point of Adam Armstrong?

More hand wringing from someone who can't quite bring themselves to admit they were wrong. Brexiteer minister claims impact of NI Protocol ‘not understood at the time’

Not thatthey're going to the World Cup, of course, but Will Smallbone has been called up by Ireland for the first time

Not the Brexit I wanted says Next Boss. Fucking idiot says Danbert

What a thick cunt

This is at least an improvement on Truss.

He is nothing like good enough, which is not his fault. Shane Long offered way more with his hold up play, speed and aerial ability than Adam ever will.

Chelsea were already dead

Agree, seems harsh on Djenepo

Wolves sign Costa https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/62878150

A 96-year-old woman is ill, so obviously they'll have to call off the football

Seriously? God, I bloody hope not.

He could do a job for us, I think. Sad to see him go.

I know he didn't score, but I thought he played well, hopefully he can take the positives.

Lurch and McCarthy are now looking at finishing their careers as back-up keepers. None of the players we've moved on from our defence, The Great Dane, Cedric or Bertrand have done well at their new clubs, though to be fair to Bertrand, that's an age issue in his case. I think they've been a major reason we've conceded so many.

In youth games, I thought he was a cut above

I thought he looked decent at fullback

Valery

Che is bang average, I see know problem in selling him if we can use the funds to put towards a decent striker

I don't think we'll be relegated, but I do think we'll struggle unless we can sign a decent striker. Brentford, Leicester, Everton, Leeds, Forest, Fulham and Bompey are the only teams I can see us finishing above.

Teams that play a pressing game expend more energy. The 5 subs rule will allow us to be that bit more aggressive and bring on fresh legs without the team losing impetus towards the end of the match because too many players are tired.
