An amusing report on the Scotland v Greece game last night.

Unambitious of me but can we not just relax and revel in some stability for a season?

I haven’t enjoyed the games I’ve seen but am happy to settle in for now.

Integration of a bunch of new players, however highly ranked, takes time.

Slot tried to do it too quickly, but they’ll get there in the end.

Too many new players being thrown in together maybe. Last year they all seemed to be operating telepathically at times - just not quite working yet. Wirtz is too good a player not to come good in the way one would expect, but maybe he should have been integrated into the starting 11 a little more gr...

that overturned Pen when Sheshko was taken down by the keeper was full nonsense. It was a pen. It wasn’t the foot that caught the striker, it was the thigh and he ran into that. There was contact then, but Sesko did a ridiculous dive as a result. On balance ( and in accordance with the rules on the...

Old school right there.

I may be unfair here, but Elliott and Doyle look more concerned about their YouTube reel than their work rate and contributions to team performances.

South Coast Royal

Royal Rother It seems a bit obvious but Amorim has to go.

No, please keep him.

Well yes, there is that.

But it’d be funny to see another hapless sod come in and fail in the basket case.

It seems a bit obvious but Amorim has to go.

Seriously, Arteta is costing Arsenal the title. Absolutely cowardly tactics and starting lineup, go a goal down and zero ideas other than tippy happy round the box..... Even the Stoke tactic is wearing thin. I thought that but Rice ,when interviewed afterwards, said they had played really wel (is t...

Currently time wasting is punished by a yellow card which many think is worth it. I'd punish it by a turnover of possession. Give the throw in or FK to the opposing team. Replace a GK with a corner etc. Much bigger deterrent. Yes, but you can't punish a team where a goalkeeper is, on rare occasions...

Something needs to be done to stop ‘keepers feigning injury with 10 mins to go just so the managers can get a tactical chat in with the players. I get that refs can’t take a chance but the managers should not be allowed to talk to the players. Move them over to the other side of the pitch. That will...

How much did Sesko cost?

Balon d’or incoming.

why not go the opposite way and slip in international fixtures as midweek games and all club games have to be done by 5pm on the saturday before (many could be moved to the Friday night) at the latest and the they don't play again until Sunday the weekend after? https://t3.ftcdn.net/jpg/01/02/64/28...

The 8 second rule for 'keepers seems to be working well.

Now time to introduce a time limit on taking stationary goalkicks as the farting about between defenders and 'keepers is getting a bit tiresome.

Balon D’Or nomination in-waiting.

Yes, and he will continue to score goals if we continue to play him. But we won’t win anything. I’m just asking the question as to whether there might be a way of shuffling the pack that would get more out of the collective resources at Tuchel’s disposal so we COULD potentially take that next step ...

I don't have any agenda, I looked at the figures which seemed to show a drop off in form but realised I miscalculated when papes pointed it out and put my hands up to making an error. However, he is 32, the rest of the squad is relatively young and should be around for the next 6-8 years so England...
