  1. Conflict in Sudan

    Thanks 2cents and calodo. I'll do my best. Thanks mate. Fortunately my wife and kids were already living abroad, and I was already planning to leave before all this. It is a bit more complicated now with this situation and with family here who I can't leave behind and are unable to leave at...
  2. The Africa Thread

    Sudan is a country where the army has leveraged it's power to become the major business and financial institution in the country. Anything that makes money, the army invests in, from banking to groceries. Hemedti the "owner" of the RSF has used his forces to control gold mines and set up a...
  3. Conflict in Sudan

    Thanks for tagging me @2cents. @The Corinthian I was in KSA, but moved back to Sudan 2017 I am currently in Khartoum. Khartoum North district (which is largely under RSF control) to be specific and the situation is very much a shit show. The cease fires are things you only hear about in the...
  4. Ole: “maybe something has to give”

    My 2 cents: Last season our strength was pace in the attack. We had problems in midfield, defence and even the goal keeping was dubious, but teams were afraid to come at us, and those that did we often punished very harshly. We had a problem against teams that were content to sit back. This...
  5. Would you take Conte at United?

    I'd take him with the understanding that he's a short term fix. Edit : I dont think we need an up and coming tactician type manager at the moment, and I don't buy into the "patterns of play" bollox. We need a manager with experience who can handle egos. I'd prefer Zidane, but I'd settle for...
  6. The manager has lost the players

    Agree. His lack of edge is a problem. Seems like the players like him, but he's not the type who can keep them on their toes.
  7. The manager has lost the players

    Yup At the end there Ole looked really unhappy, like a man devoid of ideas. Personaly I think his tenure has been good so far, he's done so many things right, but since the start of the season it's been going downhill. Looks like he's taken us as far as he can. I hope he resigns rather than...
  8. Post match vs Newcastle United

    Good game and win, Returnees Ronaldo and Lingard on the scoresheet, and Bruno, the heart of this team, scoring a stunner. Most importantly we're top of the league table. What's not to love? We've got quality starters and very good depth. This team looks to really be going places.

  10. Who’s the best “on his day” player?

    Came to say this. Good shout.
  11. How bad can your worst players be and still win the league?

    We (as well as other teams), have won plenty with sub-par players in the side. I don't think quality is the problem, it's something else that's stopping us from collecting what should be easy points. I can't quite make up my mind if it's an issue with motivation, belief determination or...

  14. Kane goes Awol

    Not personally against you mate, but this joke is getting really tiresome. I don't even understand why he's being compared to Pogba who is neither in the same class nor in a similar situation. a) Pogba isn't really generating interest at any club, let alone for a 100 mil. b) If any team put a...
