Morning folks and welcome to Monday. It's a three day week in the UK because of the Queen's jubilee, which means desk jockey's like me get to enjoy an extended weekend, which is all kinds of groovy. What is also all kinds of groovy, was seeing that three referees at the top of our game [...]
Of ever you needed a clear-cut example of how Tony Pauli’s is ‘anti-football’, it can be evidenced by Serge Gnabry and his goals against Chelski last night, quickly followed by a collective groan by Arsenal fans everywhere. I’m not saying Pulis is totally to blame for the ‘exit stage left’ of Gnabry from Arsenal, but [...]
It seems just about everyone in the world wants to slap their proverbial balls on the table and declare an interest in Mbappe right now.
