Can't anyone just...y'know...follow the rules?

Silly question I suppose.

But it’s not breaking the rules, it’s a clever way round them, and a player is worth what someone is willing to pay, and who can tell what is over paying

Yeah but you know what I mean. Rules are made and then "rich club x" pays enough clever people to find convoluted ways around the rules. Mentioning no namescitycough.

Granted, this is one of the less convoluted ways but really the rules should be more watertight. But then governing bodies don't have the spare cash the clubs do to spend on this kind of thing I suppose.

Watching the Slovenia Portugal game and I’m sure I heard the commentator say something t like “Liverpool fans he’s one your own” and don’t think he was referring to Jota

Any ideas ?

I was confused by that. He didn't expand on it. Put it down to guessing that he meant they were also a Liverpool fan.

Posted earlier but I think my mind was playing tricks.

Was he referring to this chap (who was playing)? No idea.

[Flip Martian]

Probably about Sporar then. Must admit I missed that line - I tune in and out of commentator prattle. Slovenia - far far better defending than attacking.

I thought it was a reference to Rafael Leao

Gakpo doing it again. He really needs to play there for us.

[SWoll]

That's 6 goals off the left wing for Gakpo in the last 2 international tournaments (9 games). I hope someone is paying attention..

We have a Dutch head coach. Probably has been

He needs to play in midfield!!!!!

[CountyAFC]

Scored a cracker. Disallowed goal. Fantasic assist.

Man of the match, surely.

[SydneyBridge]

He was superb

Definately our best player at the Euros so far

Apparently so.

Only saw his assist and that was a good one.

Slot's first news conference in 30 mins.

[Flip Martian]

Came across much as I expected. Not revealing anything we didn't know really.

Richard Hughes as got one weird accent, I'll say that. Very "anglicised Scottish"

I thought the same thing!

Regarding Slot, I thought it was an excellent first PC.

[Flip Martian]

Yeah he did. Nice to know he has an idea of how and where best to use Trent and Gakpo. Looking forward to this next season very much.
