    Forgot the US was playing and we’re already up 2-0. Nice.

    Random TIL - it was actually Mourinho that gave Xavi his Barcelona debut. Although Van Gaal was Manager at the time, Mourinho managed a game in a cup competition, and it was in that game that Xavi first started. I knew about Mourinho's Barcelona history and that he was Assistant Manager at the time, but never knew that.

    24 years since Xavi Hernández made his FC Barcelona debut

    idk if any team has lost more points from a winning position than AFC Wimbledon over the last few seasons

    1-0 up to 2-1 down like clockwork

    early goals are painful more than they are joyful

    It’s actually a misquote, I believe he actually said “we haven’t often played him” instead of “we haven’t often had him”

    Why would you pick Watkins or Nketiah ahead of him… Gareth is a moron.

    There was something in the press about them being unhappy about him going on holiday during the international break, I wonder if that's it.

    Very much looks like they're looking for excuses.

    Kazakhstan came from 2-0 down, with 17 minutes left, to beat Denmark 3-2. Huge upset, that.

    Watching Bukayo run at Zinchenko will be like watching The Excorcist for me.

    Absolutely.

    On the plus side, he looks our best player again. I just wish he was sitting on the bench ha

    Man, Saka is so fucking good. What a season he's having.

    This is what is wild, it’s not just this season.

    He’s been doing this since he came into the team at 17. He’s just playing with better players now and can therefor show it more consistently.

    The boy is going to be one of the best in the world.

    Gnonto went off injured for Italy. Potentially good news for Everton if we're not docked points!

    Seeing Fox Sports trying to act like 11 goals in 11 games vs Luxembourg is some sort of world beating stat for Ronaldo is hilarious.

    Good of them to make a quick decision before the international break is over. Oh wait

    Memories are nice, but that's all they are. Prestigious

    Honestly surprised it’s Stellini and not Mason.
     
  25. Tbf…Stellini and Mason have been running things the last week and those two will continue to do so for the rest of the season
