USA manager. Ex-Spurs. That’s all I’m saying.

The problem FIFA now have is that every decision under their control is now suspect. Why should anyone now trust any VAR offside decision?

Trump on live TV calling the referee who gave the red card a cheat.

The USA have it in their own hands nots to be remembered as cheats. They don’t have to play Balogun.

Luckily for Quansah he’ll now be able to play for the USA tomorrow.

The Azteca is an amazing cauldron of a stadium.

Epic.

Hills I’ll die on:- Thomas Tuchel is English.

Probably the second best England World Cup performance. Heroic.

Not sure we can keep them out for 25 mins.

None of that stuttering bollocks.

Seems that Trump does indeed hold all the cards, including the red ones.

Has anyone checked Infantino‘s Trump Coin account? Asking for a Royal Belgian Football Association.

£100k sounds arbitrary. How about fixing. It to some other value, say the date pension, or median wage?

Agree with this. It’s way to easy to set up a limited company - most European countries make it much harder. There’s also a bigger role here for banks, making them stand part way between where they are now and where an auditor traditionally sits.

Good job they brought that goalie on otherwise they’d have really embarrassed themselves in that penalty shootout.

Isn’t it simply that FIFA hate England?

The man from down under put it over.

I preferred it when I lived in a nation of shopkeepers than in the present one occupied predominantly by po-faced killjoys.

Let’s hope Mateus gets the hat-trick done. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

Terrible shame to concede a penalty just because you kicked an opponent.

Senegal are cheats. End this game now.

Rice to right back? Worked so well when Arsenal did it.

And why is Elliot Anderson even on the pitch?

Can’t wait for the England kiss and tell after the World Cup because this doesn’t look like a team of players who get on.

Compare and contrast the lethargic English forwards with their French high-speed counterparts.

Djed Spence is way out of his depth here.

Of course, Norway should already have been expelled from the competition for crimes against typefaces.

Best goal so far.

I’m sure that those who are quick to blame the internet for all childhood ills will equally as rapidly rush to absolve schools of any blame for the damage done in these circumstances. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This Brazil team would obviously be top half of the premiership but I’m not sure they’d win it.

Due respect should be given to ITV for not running ads during the hydration breaks.

Problem is some Whitehall departments will take devolution to mean “set up an additional mini-department in each region”, whilst retaining the power centrally.

Some people oppose the idea of devolution do so because the leadership in some regions may not be up to it and will fail to improve things. At the moment though, using the Whitehall model things are failing everywhere. Devolution would be better than that.

Good speech. I can sign up for that.

This is a speech more to the party and its MPs than it is to the country. It’s a recruitment drive and a warning - “Don’t get in the way!”

The No10 North idea is a huge policy shift. Better than that it’s very visible. We’ll be able to if it’s happening before we can see if it’s working. That’s a good thing.

“A rejection of the old trickle down model” Hallelujah!!

How is it going to be possible to squish a 10 year mission into 3 years?

No, no, hear me out. “A No10 carriage on the HS2 line to Manchester!” I KNOW, RIGHT!

“A completely different set-up to Euro 2024 - a tournament everyone said they'd learned so much from - with everything the players wanted has ended with the same outcome on the pitch. Big players failing to show in the big moments, even with the big treatment.” www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

What’s that you say? “Mike, you’re a net-zero zealot!” You bet your life I am! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Commentators for months:-“Andy he’s from Manchester, that’s great, from Manchester, he’s Mancunian like, he’s a Manchester lad from Maaaaanchster!” Commentators today:-“Why is Andy giving a speech In Manchester?” 🙄

Oddly, the run rate has increased since Stokes got out.

It’s obvious what this team are doing. Likelihood is that we would’ve lost anyway how was they played but this way Sunday crowd get a show. That’s not a small thing to think about.

If every other player gets 20-30 and Duckett gets a century then we’re going to be close.

Ah, I see, cunning. Take out all their bowlers. Good plan.

Should have that score knocked on the head by stumps. If he starts hitting the ball that is.

Ben Stokes certainly putting it on the line.
