Oops.
Didn't get that immediately.
Mea culpa.
Clearly, I need another cup of coffee.

Also ouch.I texted an Arsenal supporting friend "Jesus fits the Arsenal player profile exceedingly well... Very skillful, moderately- built scurrying advanced midfield player with a sensitive and easily discouraged personality."
Lol. I thought you’d missed the sarcasm about your newest player. I’d be the last person to ask someone on a forum about their religious persuasions!Oh, ouch.

Not enough coffee clearly.Yes, I did; missed it completely, I must admit.
Mea culpa.
Not enough coffee clearly.
Or too much maybe?
At this time of night? I don’t tend to make tea after 9:15.Not enough.
I have just prepared a coffee, (with organic hot milk), and a chocolate biscuit or two, on this cold, overcast early July evening.

I’m quite happy with the lack of stories regarding Rice and Bowen at the moment.Actually, I have enjoyed a few cups of tea in recent evenings, usually on the nights when I decide to forego either a beer or a glass of wine; it is much more rare for me to have a coffee at night, although, if I was out socially, I would probably partake.
Re football, Leeds (along with West Ham, Leicester, Southampton) seem to be another of the teams who run the risk of losing promising players to other, richer clubs when a season has drawn to a close.
Nicely phrased and expressed.I’m quite happy with the lack of stories regarding Rice and Bowen at the moment.
Some transfer windows you hope to bring in better players.

Candidly, I'm tired of reading about Ronaldo; his only redeeming grace is that he still scores some splendid (and very necessary) goals for whatever team he plays for.No one's going to meet West Ham's valuation of Rice this summer — not even close. I expect next summer he does move on, probably to Chelsea for an awful lot of money.
The Ronaldo show goes on and on, with him now agitating for a move away. Chelsea was mooted as a destination. Honestly I'm not arsed either way about him staying or going: on the one hand, he does not fit the way Erik ten Hag wants to play; on the other hand, the only other senior #9 in the squad is... Anthony Martial. That would mean lots of Bruno Fernandes as a false 9, but that would also let Eriksen play higher up.
Leeds is becoming to America like Wolves are to Portugal. That makes me want to root for them to succeed, but not too much — they're still Leeds, after all!

Trouble with Reinaldo is if Man U aren’t winning he will blame the team. If you drop him and aren’t winning people will blame the manager.Lots of headlines about a mystery London-based Premier League player being arrested on rape allegations. I haven't delved further but it sounds like another depressing story is brewing. Ugh.
There's just nowhere for him to go...He's already been to Real and Benzema is getting on fine there, Barca can't afford him, PSG are supposedly cleaning house and no longer interested in expensive aging superstar passengers (LOL), Man City certainly won't buy him, nobody in Italy can realistically afford him, Bayern won't bite, and he's not interested in MLS even if the kind of money he demands where there (and it isn't). Chelsea seems the most 'likely' destination, and even their interest sounds more like talk for now than serious inquiry. We'll see.
His biggest problem is possibly not even money, but the fact that he just refuses to (or cannot?) change his game to fit any system that isn't built specifically for him. Of course, for Man Utd, the the only thing worse than having Ronaldo is having a disaffected Ronaldo. I think he's just going to be in the way even if he keeps banging in goals.
Your not shipping him to my country, lol!Trouble with Reinaldo is if Man U aren’t winning he will blame the team. If you drop him and aren’t winning people will blame the manager.
Personally I can’t wait until he’s aged a bit more and we can ship him off to the MLS! You’re welcome!
Go on. We will throw in some number 7 shirts for you to sell.Your not shipping him to my country, lol!
I love me some CR7. Come to NASHVILLE SC !!!Go on. We will throw in some number 7 shirts for you to sell.
Talking of shirts we had our annual delivery of Premier League shirts, shorts and socks today.
If this is a preview of Erik ten Hag's football at Man United, I like it a lot. Coordinated and aggressive high pressing forcing a rather young Liverpool XI into a lot of mistakes, which they've duly punished in the first half.
Does he have a strong XI? 🤭I don't think Liverpool have ever done well during these preseason foreign tours in all the years I've been watching, regardless of the squad or manager or how serious (or not) they take them.
Of course, ten Hag has very good reasons to maximize his preseason preparation time and he's not faffing about, putting out a very strong starting XI.
'Pool started 8 bench/fringe/young players and then subbed in a whole new team after half an hour, so I would characterize it as a 'Random XI.' Man Utd started a genuine Premier League starting XI, scored three goals, and now have subbed in their own Random XI.Does he have a strong XI? 🤭
