Pepe the Horseman Been credited to Solanke now. Then a scorpion kick for his 2nd. Don't want to get carried away, but 10/1 to make the World Cup squad is printing money.


What's the expression "Follow the money"?

Following your AFCON success I am tempted to follow you on the basis of who else has a realistic chance of making the squad as back-up to Kane?
So few options .

And are Liverpool fixed? Ripped Newcastle a new one yesterday, have they actually turned up for the season now?


Could be.

Wirtz is getting better every game - it took a while but he is terrific to watch.


Agreed on Wirtz.
I was trying to think of a player like him and there haven't been many, perhaps Coutinho and David Silva?

If he stays fit I'd say he's got a great chance. Chances are, he won't stay fit.

He reminds me a bit of Mezut Ozil.

As it stands at this minute, an abysmal night for Spurs. And Forest are playing Wolves tomorrow too.

31 minutes injury time at Chelsea & 25 minutes at Spurs :shock: what caused that?

16 minutes at Oxford and 12 at Wigan, methinks the BBC are getting something bent again.

GOTS contender from Sesko to “break West Ham’s hearts”.

Looks like he’s going to turn out alright that fella.

Spurs do have a lot of injuries but they look pretty gutless right now.

Time for Big Sam to peel the cucumber off his eyes?
