The newspapers and media will be full of "Ruining football, human rights abuses".

Weren’t we linked with Isak a couple of years ago?

Looks like they’re trying to do things sensibly to me. Lot of talk of them going mental spending wise after the take over.

They’re obviously restricted a bit more than we were but it doesn’t look like they’re looking at signing short term superstars for the headlines. But just gradually upgrading. Maybe recycle the first team 3 or 4 times and they’ll be challenging for the title in 10 years or so. Good luck to them.

He's decent, got a bit of pace. But he was playing in front of David Silva at Sociedad which I think has, shall we say, put a bit of a shine on his performances.

He'd be handy if we were facing a particularly wicked game.

She looked damned well in that video. As the "yoof" would say; wicked.

Its not the lovely Helena who remains ingrained in my memory from that music video.
(Although I have to agree that she is a stunning looking woman).
It's the fact that Chris was born on the same day/date as myself - 26/06/56.

Christ, you're older than me. Which I didn't think was possible.
