This, I think, is what it boils down to. Not necesarily Latin but certainly possession based attacking football. Imagine being Tony Bloom, investing £350m (or whatever it is now) of your own money in to a stadium, training ground, youth academy and playing squad, and then having your club...
This, Norwich have shipped 56 goals with one to play this season. Major defensive surgery needed for them before the season starts. See also Villa (59 goals) and West Brom (59 goals) should they come through the play offs.
That just isn't true. We spent £77.63m (figures from Transfermarkt) which is more than:
Man City
Tottenham
Burnley
Newcastle
Palace
Watford
Huddersfield
Southampton
Cardiff
Now admittedly transfer spend is not the best measure of team funding Vs results, wage spend is generally more revealing...
Liverpool twice a season, Manchester twice a season, London six or seven times a season, shit south coast away days twice a season, doesn't leave many good, or at least different away days. For me that is the major positive of the Championship. Nottingham, Sheffield, Norwich, Bristol...
Then we are going down. No way will we get more points than Burnley, if you presume we lose to Cardiff, which is the only realistic way they are overtaking us from here.
This, Micky Adams mk 1 basically bought a load of players who had been promoted from the 4th division before, result promotion from the 4th division. Cannot see any reason why purchasing a bunch of serial failures is a good idea.
Calum Chambers for example already has two relegations on his CV...
It is not what most Leavers or Remainers want exactly, however, in a vote that was 52% to 48% then the compromise half in, half out, super soft Brexit is what was indicated by the result. I have never really understood how this has not been obvious from day one. Yes, leave won but a sizable...
May has to go now surely. Once the general election went so poorly for her, tied in with the closeness of the original referendum a consensus approach should have been adopted. Sadly she chose red lines, confrontation and bribery.
Hudson-Odoi a complete disgrace there. Did not compete for the header, then just jogged back without putting a tackle in, I know he is only a kid but still.
That is only a Champions League/World Cup rule. When we use VAR for some randomly chosen games in our cup competitions in this country, the linos are instructed to flag as normal.
