    With the type of area he's from (very similar to areas around where I live), it's unfortunately not that out of the ordinary and probably not related to wealth. I know quite a few people I went to school with that were the same at that age.

    it was really odd when he and City PR tried to pretend that his 1st kid wasn't actually his. More so just avoiding confirmation that he had a kid at 19

    But then he started a social media following for him after winning the treble.

    won’t happen but I’d love to see a front four of:

    Watkins
    Gordon - Palmer - Saka

    Why doesn't Southgate just go with two strikers up top and let Jude/Phil cook underneath them?

    It's all hell.

    Between him and Walker, those City players are incredibly virile.

    If England crash out in unassuming fashion, I guarantee that you're going to get some players speak their mind afterwards about the social media / pundit treatment. I get having an opinion, but I also understand how hard it must be to play under that level of pressure, and the throwing cups and beer at Southgate is just over the line. I know a lot of sports are similar, but the level of vitriol and criticism at the England National team has got to be next level unbearable these days.

    That's why I talk shit in here. I don't see Kyle Walker or Harry Kane popping their head in any time soon.

    Also, 5 points, a group win and a favorable path, so HOPEFULLY an uptick in performance when you set up your team for must win play. The left side is the biggest issue. Trippier just stops, cuts in and there's absolutely no threat of anything creative happening down that flank with the current set up.

    LOL at Alexi Lalas pronouncing it Trippy-AY.

    Irish commentators pronounce Trippier like that too

    Interesting. Maybe I'm the nonce then. I've never heard it with the almost French pronunciation that Lalas put on it and he's very easy to make fun of.

    Trippier will keep starting cause a) there's nobody else ) Southgate is of the ilk that likes a set piece. He'll see Trippier as an "asset" for winning a game, regardless of what he's like in open play.

    I remember being at college, so we’d have been 17, and a girl left to have her second child. Absolute madness. But my area was pretty bad for it ha.

    I know people seem to really dislike Zinchenko cause he has a habit of putting his foot in his mouth, but I’d absolutely love him to score the winner here
