I see Celtic have bought a new left back. Perhaps tierney will be moving after all.

I hope his Italian is good

I see the £40m Zaha bid is on the bbc site now too.
I’d much rather spend our limited budget on some defenders. I’m not zaha’s biggest fan but 40m in this market is a bit of a piss take

Has anyone seen tierney play much-is he actually any good?

Very interesting article Herbert, thanks for posting.
Can’t quite see our current crop digging in with the same guts and determination (or any of today’s players to be fair!)

Without googling it I can’t think of anyone since Charlie Nicholas and David o Leary!

There’s definitely been some Irish players since but can’t think of any off the top of my head!

Seems like this won’t be the case in the league next season at least:

Just seen that the same thing happened in Scotland women’s game with missed penalty being retaken. At least this one was saved so keeper could be seen to be gaining an advantage unlike the French player who didn’t hit the target so shouldn’t matter what the keeper did! Couldn’t give a fuck in this s...

Well thank fuck for that
For 24 seconds there I was quite worried

He’s been given a 2 year contract. We had to pay off the last manager. He ain’t going nowhere.

Fucking backward country with shit facilities and shit transport. i hope the ground is empty and that UEFA are shamed or at least have some discomfort for arranging the final in such a stupid place. Baku is like any other city in Europe a mixture of the modern and the historical. I expect most Goon...

The guy who hit the penalty straight down the middle has completely shit the bed

Then the guy who was brought on for the shootout misses his penalty!

Ah well, 2 all English finals, let’s beat these fuckers!

Ffs!

No doubt we’ll manage to buck the trend tomorrow and fuck it up from a 1st leg lead.

Here’s hoping Klopp doesn’t ‘bottle’ this final!

Would be 5 English teams in champions league next season if we win europa.
Sadly I doubt that will happen!

Yeah particularly after another spurs defeat, it will be interesting to see if emery rests lots of players for the second leg or not. As much as I don’t want to see Elneny in an Arsenal shirt again it could happen tomorrow, and may even make sense!

Perhaps not the right thread but I see Ramsey is ruled out for the season and therefore has played his last game for us.

A very frustrating player at times but played some good games this season and scored some important goals for us. Will always have fond memories of his cup winning goals!
