Well we have heard from the managers now, with both doing their usual niceties talking about each other, which we’ve all come to expect given how close they are as friends. Pep did a little flippant comment about how if Mikel wins the league it is not because of him or his team, but because [...]

Greetings from Porto! This week I’ve been road tripping through Portugal and today we’re off to the Douro valley for loads of wine and hopefully sunshine, but I wanted to check in because as we all know, yesterday it appears that there were market movements for Brentford’s captain Christian Norgaard.
