    Also I love the idea that clubs are going to be queuing up to pay a fee for a player under contract with massive questions marks over his injury record. I can only assume @frenchredplans to transfer list him, click the “add a manager” button to take over some unsuspecting premier league club, blow the club’s entire £15 million transfer budget on Williams, loan a couple of players to us whilst he is at it and then click the “resign from club” button the second the deal is done.

    Unfortunately that tactic is way more effective on Football Manager than it is in real life…

    Never played football manager in my life, preferred the real thing

    Problem is - nice as it would be for this thread not to descend into political debate - it is really difficult to separate the issue of COVID and the issue of how the pandemic is managed by the governments of different countries. 

    I've no idea what I think we should be doing at the moment, mind. I think there's a fair chance that the concerns over Omicron are going to prove to be more dramatic than the reality. Both the vaccines and previous infections are likely to provide some degree of protection. It's like the variant has been in the country for a few weeks and hospital admissions are moving in the right direction and there doesn't seem to be any suggestion this variant is more serious. At the same time, assuming it is all overblown is a Hell of a gamble that - if wrong - means people die. I get why Germany have done this but it doesn't necessarily mean I think we should do the same but I could be completely wrong and Germany could be right.

    I do think we should be being cautious until we know more - I'd have no problem with doing a lateral flow test before games and wearing a mask at any point where I wasn't eating or drinking - but I don't know whether I think cautious extends to stripping back attendances and not doing things. 

    Understand what you are saying mate but remember Germany is in the grip of the delta virus not omicron

    Germany 103,000 Covid Deaths, 84 Million population

    UK 145,000 Covid deaths, 68 Million population

    Sorry but that is what really matters isn't it?  Stop swallowing their bullshit

     

    unfortunately some will believe anything the bumbling buffoon tells them. will try and spin their rhetoric to anyone who will listen.

    bungler has blood on his hands

    As Bentley is one of the only players with a reasonable transfer value i would probably signed FF on a free and sold Bents (reluctantly) in the Jan window to get some much needed transfer kitty

    Omg really! I thought he was a weak link for us when he was in his prime! And aging declining frankie is just sentimental clap trap!

    You do understand her coaching abilities can be those of someone above Wimbledons level right ?

    You need to not compare the womens and mens game. 

    Some of the best coaches in the world work at youth levels for instance.

    Sweeping statement! Who are these beat coaches in the world operating at youth level?

    Yeah because Michael Owen or Robbie Savage are so much more knowledge and charismatic than Alex Scott for example... At least the latter can be bothered to do some research for the games she is on rather than trotting out tired old clichés. 

    I agree Eni Aluko wasn't great, but look, now 3 people have expressed that opinion in this public forum alone... No one has died, no one has been cancelled, no one has been arrested... Stop wetting the bed with your political agendas. 

    I don't wet the bed any more young un, unless I've drunk to much alcohol, when you're old enough to drink  you may be the same!  ??

    Eni Aluko is such a terrible pundit

    Yes but your not allowed to mention it! Basically if these channels picked the best person for their roles no women would be involved and that's just not allowed in today's woke world!

    Think it’s pretty harsh, and lazy to be honest, to use the poor standard of the Latvian goalkeeper to have a dig at the woman’s game as a whole, without acknowledging in this game in particular that quite a few of those England goals were well taken - certainly finishes you’d be impressed with at Sunday league level, given that was mentioned earlier. 

    And that's exactly what it is! Sunday league level

    Incredible player, amazing to think that Shankly took him as a striker at Arsenal and converted him to a midfield player. He scored roughly 1 in 3 as a striker and 1in 5 as a midfield player.

    He actually signed for Liverpool the day Shanklin resigned!
