ETH made him wear a GPS watch and his pay basically depends on the distance travelled similar to Uber.
That would be amazing ‘your driver has been awarded the moody fecker badge 443 times…

OMG, I know it's pre-season but I'm dying here! :D
Innit and only 50% from this heat!


Ralf Rangnick and Chris Amas must be doing a double take.
I never want to hear about the hairless Ted Lasso again!

I just wonder whether Ronaldo would actually be a hindrance to this team. The front three have looked really unselfish

If Android Townsend was playing, he’d definitely get one back for Palace from 30 yards. Plonker only ever scores against us.
To be fair, I think Townsend has scored a goal of the season screamer like every season. His goal against City (?) was sublime.

I hate this. I hate that I have hope again. I just know it’ll be crushed again, it’s a painful and confusing emotion.
We finally have a manager who wants us to play how the majority want us to play. There is real hope.

Second half has been much better than the first where I thought we looked quite ordinary. We've been great this half.

Yep, this is what a real coach bring to the table and this is why when things look dreadful the coach is the one that takes the blame.
Because he’s the most important man in the team who can make the biggest difference.

We look really good. Its not going to be smooth sailing by any means but I reckon we’ll do well this season.
Yep, its always silly when you hear 'we need ten new players'. ETH is going to be our biggest signing.
I do think we need the important midfielder (like fdj) that makes a difference long term.

If I believed Martial was going to keep this form up I'd be tempted to just let Ronaldo go.

As unusual and refreshing as this is, especially after last season, I just can’t get pre season 2014 out of my head. It’s like there’s a ceiling on any excitement I can take from us playing like Brazil 1970 as we’ll probably lose our first 3 league games or something :lol: I realise this makes me sound like a right miserable bastard but I’ve been burned too many times before.
