ExiledAjax

Some great and valuable context here. Glad to hear he was decent and will surely push on.

Hang on. We won!? I've been at Norwich v Watford. I thought we were doing shit. Well cooked. What happened?

It's Massengo v Weimann for player of the season so far isn't it. Thank you.

Sorry to hear about your grandmother. I hope you can enjoy some more time with her before she dies. On your other point, I am also in my early 30s. I had a private health check when I was 25, and get one every few years now as well. I get mine free through work so am in a slightly odd position. However I'll give you the following advice. If you can be honest with yourself then at our age you (with a little help from NHS online) can probably do a fair self-assessment. A private assessment will mainly be asking about lifestyle - how much do you drink, smoke, exercise etc. What's your diet? Do you do drugs? It's that kind of stuff. If you're honest with yourself then you likely know your vices and paying a Dr to tell you them may jot be useful. On top of that they'll weigh and measure you, and do some basic tests to see how your flexibility is holding up. Height and weight you can do at home and the Internet can advise on what is healthy. With flexibility - can you touch your toes? Can you do a beginners yoga video on YouTube? Can you touch your hands together behind your back. Oh the other good test is can you stand up from a cross-legged seating position without touching anything with your hands? Anything above that, stuff like bone density scans, full heart rate measurements, prostate stuff, gastro checks - all that is extra and will only be done if you or the Dr have any particular concerns.

Will be pretty low so long as Sunderland are top.

You're jealous of the guys on Arsenal duty aren't you?

Don't know if anyone watches Brooklyn 99, The League (or any other show/films this guy is in) but I'm pretty sure they've actually signed Detective Pimento.

I think you have to caveat this performance with the fact it was against a newly promoted side who had lost their opening game. Salernitana are also phoenix club, the current incarnation of which was formed only 10 years ago apparently. So look, this is hardly the Latin derby or a game against one of the old dons of Serie A. But still, he's now played well in both league games so far, and that first was against Fiorentina. Calvert-Lewin has just pulled out of the squad though, so perhaps Abraham will be called up?

He's got to spend that goal bonus on something. Honestly though, he looks like he's having a lovely time. Assisting and scoring goals on the pitch, and posting some enviable vistas on Instagram off it. The highlights from last night are a great watch for him. he's showing all of that fox in the box style he had when with us. A great pass for Roma's second at 1:10, and then his own sweet first time strike finds the net at 1:40 for their third. He honestly looks like he's been part of that team for years. See above.

Weimann will get the headlines and probably MOTM, but I have to say I think Massengo, Baker, and Pring were exceptional today.

FIVE! Five minutes of ET! Where the hell has that come from?

That was class from JD in the corner.

Time to start shithousing

Bents with another save. You must be nearing the armpit now.

JD coming on. Pring off and 5 at the back?

Can you please clip the handbags as well.

Disappointed that potty mouth Williams kept his cool there.

Joe Williams sums it up on RobinsTV "argh, ****"

Shades of Albrighton I reckon

And corners

So close again. Bright start to the second 45.

Massengo ?

I feel like a few people have forgotten just how awful we were last winter. Those last couple of months under Holden were just dreadful.

I think he's been pretty good today, could have been a little more decisive in the box at times, but playing well. Him and Pring are certainly causing problems.

I for one am looking forward to Scott coming on in the second half and running at and around Aden Flint.
