A good mate of mine is a lifelong Southampton fan. Le Tissier ending up this way breaks his heart. For us it'd be like Kenny going all UKIP. Must be horrible.
He may be right. And they probably should beat Iran, Wales and the US. Kane could have six or seven goals from the group games, especially if he has been practising his diving.
And he'll be reelected as head of FIFA in March, unopposed, unless the Qatar World Cup should end in proper uproar and outrage, or maybe not even finish at all. And even then he'd still likely be reelected. He is a f***ing awful sort.
A propos of nothing, I think Olivier Giroud has to be the most handsome, gorgeous, manly footballer in the history of the game. Imagine marking him as a defender. You're massive, very good at football and f***ing hell you look like a statue.
Owned by successive billionaires but somehow their most important players are veteran Thiago Silva and injury prone Ngolo Kante. Their recruitment has been diabolical for years. But then so has their managerial appointing. Joke of a club.
The teams down the bottom this season aren't as bad as last season. Everton could go down this time. They're rubbish and Lampard is the worst, least qualified manager in the division.
Lampard is the perfect manager for Everton. Unearned, entitled sense of own importance, nowhere near as good as he thinks he is, and a pretty nasty piece of work into the bargain. Marriage made in hell.
