Today’s Football 2019/20 Season

[Toast]

So basically the league will be starting a month later than usual but finishing around the same time as it normally does.

Between international fixures and the European comps, some players aren't going to be getting much of a break at all next season.

They’ve just had 3 months off, about to get another few weeks off as well.
5 subs again next season too.

They are hardly going down the mines mate.

I assume that means the end of the winter break they all said was essential.

Starting mid Sept rather than mid August isn't that big of a difference. They will need to find 5 different match days. 4 for the league and 1 for the second round of the league cup.

Extend the season a fortnight, add a bank holiday game somewhere (A Good Friday/Easter Monday double header etc), add a couple of extra midweeks, and you're sorted.

Last I read the winter break was still happening.

Make the Premier League teams play away in the third round matches.

Which if we're selecting Henderson because of the subtle stuff he does, that clearly hasn't been applied in Silva's situation.

I'm actually fuming at this. You're an absolute moron if you try to argue Henderson is better than Van Dijk or Salah but he is player of the season.

It’s always the case with the FA and English media. They absolutely have a big rod on for a hard working English clogger who ‘doesn’t get the respect he deserves’. Especially with hendersons BS captain fantastic routine and the so called romance of the shoite’s first title in 30 years it was nailed on.

5,000 fans allowed in the 80,000 seater stadium tonight for the French cup Final.

6 yellow cards and a red in the first half, plus a 20 man brawl, FFS, gutted I forgot it was on.

1-0 PSG 2nd half kicks off soon.

Frank de Boer “mutually departed” by Atlanta... that’s got to be his managerial career over. That looked a horrible hire at the time and he did nothing to change that.

Grim if that’s Mbappe ruled out of the Champions League because of that challenge.

If we have any chance of Thiago Silva on a free we need to be all over it - he’s still got it

Nasty that.
The ruck after it tho.

22 man scuffles is what modern football needs more of imo

Of course he does. PSG don't care about sentiment. He's still a baller.

Sean Dyche saw that Perrin challenge and was like “hmmm how much would he cost”

National League play off semi finals today. Got a stream for York v Altrincham. Currently 0-1, 10 minutes gone.

Indeed, also a big fan of the ooh-lala's which start at eleven seconds in.
