Real poor. Having to play as a four as Coady is out shows how important he is to the team.

Been better since Neto came on. But the back is making me nervous.

Ugh fuck saints and their river plate fake kit. You’re from South England not South America bruh (disclaimer - alchomahol)

They don’t make em like him and Gazza anymore do they.

The hand of God came and took him to heaven…

(getting a hand of God joke in before the internet is flooded with them).

And surprisingly he’s the only one who looks sober there, heh.

I was just talking about him last night with my son when he asked me who the equivalent of Messi and Ronaldo was when I was his age… Like every kid, I had an Argentina Maradona 10 shirt when I was 9/10, I was so stoked on it.

Was that when Maradona threatened to have Oasis shot? I remember hearing something about that.

Am I the only one who thinks Maradonna was a total Michael Fabricant?

He did cheat in nearly every way possible and engaged in some violence as well but then you could say he was of his time. He’s still a great of the game though.

Not at all but it’s not like it was a one off piece of cheating.

He was a bit before my time so I don’t really remember him but I’ve always associated him with Cantona - unpleasant guy but very good at his job. Can’t say I’m a fan, not much respect as a person, but credit where it’s due.

We didn’t start the Falklands war or cheat them out of a World Cup, every right to be unpleasant.

Failed drug test at a WC, ā€˜After playing just two games he was sent home after testing positive for ephedrine.’

He also instigated a riot when at Barcelona.

Ultimately I didn’t know him so I’d never call him that myself but there does seem to be a lot of evidence out there, don’t really get the DM comment but I’ll live with that I think.

He kicked that dude but he was and is ok isn’t he? I like him in the TV adverts.

That story had more to it as well, crazy response of course but didn’t that guy run all the way down from the top stand to abuse him? No idea what he was meant to have said.

I dunno, probably alright. Never seemed like a nice guy watching him play as a kid, but he’s definitely got a head on him and would probably be fun to talk to. Yeah I guess you’re right.

I mean, in fairness, it often does…

Not in a ā€œhe’s on drugs, he’s a Michael Fabricantā€ way, more of a ā€œheavy drug use will make a nice person into an assholeā€ way.

We gave the people that live there a vote, they voted 99% that they wanted to be a self-governing British Overseas Territory.
