I've never noticed a cooldown break lasting less than four minutes so those games may well have been short changed on the clock.

He was a part of the squad, let him have his meddle and let's hope it's his last for a at least five years.

Who's live watch along channels do people want to catch up with first?

Not surprised, just disappointed. As for the nations World Cup, that's a different situation. In that case the nations wanted to have competitive matches to play in the interim because they earn more money from them. Club sides already have all of the competitive matches they can fit in, but of course there isn't a separate qualifying competition like their is for the nations World Cup.

Take a bow Enso Maresca.

Now then Todd, get fifa sorted. It's ludicrous that the defending champions don't automatically qualify for the next tournament.

Look at Enso offering Donna a contract. 🙂

That shouldn't be a yellow it should be a red.

I just watched the first half highlights from the England women's game.

Good use of the substitutions is going to be key now.

Wise words.

Had to be a three man midfield with Cole nominally wide right. Just a shame it couldn't include Lavia. What's clear now is that Enso prefers Reece substituting there over any of his other options so we might as well get used to it.

Cool down break?

Could, and maybe should, be more than three.

Is anybody can come back from three - nil I reckon it's them.

The graphic does note that the Super Cup is excluded. I'm sure the pretext is that it's not a proper, multi team, competition. In reality it's probably omitted because the Ls would spoil the graphic's storyline.

That's a blow.

Fitness permitting: - Sanchez, James, Tosin, Colwill, Cucurella, Lavia, Caicedo, Fernandez, Palmer, Pedro, Neto.

I'm not convinced it's correct to say that this will be the second edition. What has been known as the club World Cup in more recent seasons was originally called the Intercontinental Cup. Right from the days when it was a straight match up between the champions of Europe and South America.

Didn't Maresca say at his press conference that Caicedo did not train?

We've been told that Champions League qualification triggers a clause in our players' contracts which increases their earnings. Assuming that this means increases to their basic pay, and not just bigger bonuses, £197.5k shouldn't be out of reach. Certainly it's within a range where any shortfall the club would enforce to protect the wage structure could be negotiated away with a marginally increased signing bonus. The bigger issue with Rodrygo seems more likely to be persuading him to join rather than paying him. P.S. Let's hope that Sterling isn't due for a pay rise too owing to CL participation. 🙁

Could someone contact Jose and ask if he is free on Sunday afternoon. It would take a Jose masterclass to stop this PSG side.
