Schadenfreude indeed, warms the cockles of yer heart doesn’t it
Can appears to be on for a move to PSG or Bayern so not exactly oblivion. I'd like to hear the explanation for his departure. Did he not want to fight for his place/be rotated or did he think Juve would give him a better opportunity for a trophy or two? Or was it just ££££

Coutinho's "failure" at Barca is part of the conversation about coaching there.

Ask Raheem Sterling if grass is greener scratchchin
I don’t suppose he has any regrets at all and neither does his unpleasant agent
His agent seemed to be a problem. I thought the business done on his move was good in terms of the fee and letting someone who wanted to leave do so to be replaced by someone who wanted to be there. Sterling's end product was always lacking during his time at Anfield. I think Pep and his coaching staff have done a great job with him.

They said during the Spurs game that the refs at Stockely confirmed that the CL pen wouldn't have been given in the Prem as it was neither intentional nor in an unnatural position. So no, manufactured pens will rarely be given. Any handball by an attacker is penalised though.

Providing it is applied consistently by VAR, I don't see any issue. I've yet to an incorrect VAR decision decide a game.
So are we playing by different rules than the rest of the World/Europe or have they been changed across the board since the CL final ?
And also the statement of the 'arm in un-natural position's very confusing, I've never seen anything more unnatural than a defender running around with his hands behind his back. Perhaps kit manufacturers will produce shorts with pockets.

It's set up already at the Spurs new ground, just waiting for approval.

Haven’t we just gone from moaning about refs to moaning about VAR?

If I was still playing I know what would be number one on the training pitch, striker with a defender in front, can I flick the ball at his hand instead of trying to beat him on the outside and cross. The rue indeed is black and white so manufactured penalties will soon increase through the season, legalised cheating !! Nonsense rule.
But the rule is about the attacking side, not the defending. "Any goal scored or created with the use of the hand or arm will be disallowed this season, even if it is accidental". That all solely relates to the side attacking. If they handle it (even accidentally) in the build up or in the goal itself, it's crossed off. Simple answer is - don't handle the ball, and if it's hit you or a team mate accidentally and you go on and score - too bad. Seems pretty simple really.

Sterling scored plenty of tap-ins in the Suarez season, struggled when we were rubbish, then scored lots of tap-ins when he moved to a good team. I'm sure he'd score plenty of tap-ins for our current team too.

Can was too slow to be a great player in the Prem, much more likely to be a success in Germany or Italy. Giving him the benefit of the doubt, perhaps that was obvious to him too and his move was about playing i a league he could be decent in.

Proper 7 day break to work on fitness, get the defence gelling better and hopefully getting Ox and Keita up the curve. And Fab and Milner

Next Saturday will be a defensive test though looking forward to getting at their back line.

Yeah, pretty handy against hooliganism, maybe they can put some kind of a shotgun or dairy gun next to the face scan.

Swift justice: three strikes and you're out.

Both won league titles last year. Not bad moves where they.
